binge spending

going months without buying anything and then suddenly, splurging on shit you don't need

I haven't bought anything in months, but I just finished binge spending when I went to the mall and bought $1000 worth of stuff.

doom spending

Fuck it. I can't afford the shit I want anyway. Spend it when I get it. Nothing matters.

I'll never be able to afford a house or children, so I've been doom spending on dumb shit all week.

Where you cleverly dodge the state "snack tax" by mostly using just cash-funds from your SSI check to purchase "basic staple" items like milk, cereal, produce, meat, etc, and reserve the allotment on your Food Stamps card for buying soft drinks, seltzer water, dry-roasted nuts, and other equally-simple stuff that's really just an ordinary everyday comestible, also, but the greedy government classifies it as a "snack food" so that they can charge you sales-tax if you use regular cash to pay for it, but the tax is "forgiven" if you buy it with Food Stamps.

I bought some bulk-bottles of unsalted dry-roasted peanuts so I'd have several months' worth of healthy snacks to munch on throughout the day, and by using strategic 'Stamps-spending, I saved several dollars in sales-tax.

Return To Spender

Da way you should mark an envelope containing an astronomical department-store/online-merchant invoice dat someone who had "gone wild with his credit card" has sent to you and blubberingly asked if you would pay off his bill for him. Hey --- we are all responsible for our actions, so unless there was actually a prior agreement, it's not up to someone else to "bail you out" if you are not wise/thrifty with your purchasing!

I always try to be very frugal and carefully calculate how much I am paying for an actual/virtual cart of merchandise, so that hopefully I can avoid having any "Return To Spender" letters' winding up in my mailbox!
