An individual (usually male) that goes from store to store or from department from department within the same store in a desperate pathetic attempt to date members of the opposite sex. Often they are frequent customers, but clearly their motives are not patronage and they're completely oblivious to the annoyances they cause. Sometimes they work for the same retailer they do their stalking in.
He was not successful getting the phone number of the cute girl at the Service Deli counter, so he went to Dairy and tried to get the phone number of the cutie working there. If he does not get it he will try the hottie in Electronics -- such is the life of a retail stalker.

Get the Retail Whoremug. Intensive shopping for nothing in particular than can lead to large credit card bills and inevitably immense debt or loss of property.
My girlfriend went for some retail therapy the other day because her best mate called her fat and now we have a £3000 credit card bill and can't pay our mortgage.

Get the retail therapymug. 1. An idiot's way of dealing with an idiotic problem.
2, One of the most moronic notions bestowed upon humankind that simply buying some frivolous mass-produced good can alleviate one's mood or take away a bad feeling caused by a REAL problem, when in fact buying some random product will do nothing about the actual problem but MAY induce an hour's worth of distraction which is enough for people who have the attention span and memory of a chipmunk.
