binge shopping
Compulsive buying spree
Binge shopping is an episode of excessive, often compulsive purchasing—buying far more than needed or planned in a short period.
Like binge eating or binge drinking, it suggests loss of control followed by regret: I went binge shopping after the breakup and maxed out my credit card.
The behavior may be triggered by stress, emotion, or the dopamine hit of acquisition.
