false 6588387 1 Amanda Ford loves to shop, and she exuberantly shares the stories of her most memorable finds — the perfect pink sweater, a set of precious porcelain dishes, and dusty but valuable antiques. But she also shows how shopping allows people to examine deeper truths about their lives and what is really going on when money is spent. Blending her own experiences with life lessons, quotes, and advice, along with illustrations throughout, the message is ultimately about discovering one’s passions, taking care of oneself, and being conscious about decisions. Chapters include "The Best Trends to Follow Are the Ones You Set Yourself," "We Never Know How Things Will Turn Out," "Be Thankful for What You Have," and "Some Places We Have to Go To Alone." This is a playful yet wise look at the pleasures of shopping for those who live by the motto When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Go Shopping. 6781918 31 8 2002 Retail Therapy: Life Lessons Learned While Shopping 0 0 0 0 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=6588387
