Is Amazon my Addiction?

When I realized recently how much my hard-working husband paid the bank for my charges, after my Riga 2019 trip, I began thinking about my spending habits. At some point during a self-evaluation of how and when I make purchases, I evaluated the Apps on my phone as the points of spending entry. The Amazon App is so quick and easy to use and I spend a lot on books, books that I can get from the library. I have a real Amazon addiction that has been going on since Amazon started selling only books. I decided I needed to delete the App to make it difficult for me to get access to Amazon so fast. I’ve not fully resolved this buying addiction because I’m clever enough to find Amazon anyway, so I have much work to do with this type of spending habit. What I’m going to do next is simply delete my Amazon account all together and see if the act of setting up an account again slows me down enough to get me to think.

I reviewed my Amazon account and I first realized a book I returned for refund went on an Amazon gift card not the Visa, so I went to the customer service link and sent a phone call request. Within seconds Amazon called me. Customer service refunded the money back to my credit card and I requested they close my account. Amazon had to send me a link to officially close it. I completed the comment section and submitted the request. It was very easy. Thank you Amazon for making this step easy.

Now the hard part begins. Me stopping my Amazon searching.
