Realise your own value. Know that you can't add value to yourself by shopping. You are NOT what you buy. You are NOT your bank balance. You can surround yourself with stuff but it won't complete you or fill any holes. Know that you are perfect just the way you are. If you need to find a 'filler' it just proves that you have an EMOTIONAL hole to fill. Isolate the emotional hole and close the emotional gap. No amount of shopping, eating cakes and biscuits, drinking alcohol or coffee, or smoking fags is going to properly fill the gap. If you're eating because you're bored or shopping because you're lonely or drinking to drown out an emotional pain, take little tiny steps towards changing these and filling the emotional holes. Get a hobby, join a club, seek help.
Remember that you are no worse and no better than anyone else and you're also not what anyone tells you you are.
Live the life you want to lead, and address the emotional problems you have as they arise. Take a minute to work out what you truly want and take a small step towards getting it.
Shopping isn't the answer.
