Some people cannot control their emotions when they shop. That is a normal thing if there is enough money intended for shopping. Though it is wrong, but there are individual differences. Some are reckless, and some are cautious in handling their money,

I don't use emotions when shopping. I have been broke too many times to start using emotions to make purchases.

You are so right, as humans we are emotional beings by nature, so it takes training and practice to be able to develop that self discipline.
