Confessions of a Shopaholic on DVD 6/23/09

Who doesn’t love to shop? I was fortunate enough to watch, laugh and fall in love with the characters from Confessions of a Shopaholic. If you haven’t seen this movie – watch it! If you don’t own it – buy it! Truly a great addition to any collection!

I can, in a way, relate to Rebecca’s character in Confessions of a Shopaholic because I have a purse addiction. Shame on me. LOL I do believe that some debt is brought on by people themselves, so it was fun to see how she was going to get herself out of her shopping addicted debt. The overall storyline was good, funny, and overall – HAD a storyline.

A flat broke fashion junkie is hired to dispense monetary advice in the stylishly funny romantic comedy Confessions of a Shopaholic, coming to Blu- rayTM Hi-Def and DVD on June 23, 2009 from Touchstone Home Entertainment.

SYNOPSIS
When fashionista Rebecca Bloomwood’s out-of-control spending reaches the outer limits of
her credit cards, she is forced to find employment to pay for her label-icious wardrobe. Her
dream job is a position at New York’s top fashion rag Alette, but she has to settle for a desk
at Successful Saving, a struggling financial magazine owned by the same publishing
company. With a dogged debt collector (Robert Stanton) hot on her stilettos, Becky becomes
the unlikely author of a column on saving money—with a little help from her friends at
Google. Her unconventional outlook on money matters attracts the approval of her dreamy
boss, Luke Brandon (Hugh Dancy), and Becky begins to think maybe there is a whole new
world waiting for her just a few steps away from Madison Avenue.
