What is Jamie's Corner?
ME: Hello, my name is Jamie and I have a problem.
MEETING ATTENDEE #1: Hello Jamie.
ME: I am here to learn to control my problem. But the
temptation is all around, practically on every corner. I can even get it
delivered at home.
MEETING ATTENDEE #2: I sneak out when my husband thinks I am
at still at work and come home with a little something. I hide it in the garage.
I feel so guilty, but I have trouble stopping.
MEETING ATTENDEE #1: And it seems like you can get it anywhere.
I, well, I picked up something on my way out of the drugstore.
MEETING ATTENDEE #1: Both.
ME: Ouch.
MEETING ATTENDEE #1: Yes, I know.
MEETING ATTENDEE #2: Oh, yes. You know the one I have
trouble with? It starts with “Ama”
ME: Oh, yes, I know the one. Amass More Stuff Delivery
Service.
MEETING ATTENDEE #2: I have trouble with Buy Everything Now
and Spend All Your Money.com
MEETING ATTENDEE #1: Tell me about it. My Achilles’ Heel is
I Want Your Money and You Need More Shoes.
ME: I have trouble with Old Army. I buy everything there.
MEETING ATTENDEE #1: (whispers) What does she expect? They were
having an extra 20% off sale today only!
ME: How long have you been attending Spending Anonymous
Meetings?
MEETING ATTENDEE #1: Oh, I just started tonight.
