Sometimes, I just wonder what will make
a complete shopping list. Brand labels are everywhere. We barely got through
one before another comes, and we are left with choices and money we do not have
to buy more often things we do not need.
- Almost one in four admits to being addicted to shopping
- A shopaholic’s average personal debt stands at £11, 337.87
- Three-quarters of consumer debt is attributed to fashion and grooming purchase
- 86% of British people admit to buying clothes that they would never wear, at a total cost of £7.3 billion a year.
- Britain’s personal debt is increasing by £1 million every 4 minutes.
- Total UK personal debt at the end of 2007 stood at £1.4 trillion.(Facts from: Bonfire of the brand)
Most brands have found out that the way
to a consumer’s heart is to trigger the emotions of mystery, sensuality and
intimacy”, to the point that we buy emotionally and justify rationally.
I know one brand that never goes away,
seasons come or season go. Can I suggest you make this brand the most important
part of your shopping experience as you shop through life’s daily ups and
downs? It is the love of God through Jesus Christ.
Life is too short but eternity is
real. There is an impending wrath of God against our godlessness and
wickedness, but John 3 vs. 16 says for God so loved the world that He gave his
only begotten son that whosoever believe in him will not perish but have
eternal life
It will gladden my heart if you gave
this a thought.
Would you?
