Oniomania: the real name for "shopaholic".
Apopros the season.

I suppose there is one small bit of something good in the seasonal oniomania; that's the fact that most of the shopping is for gifts for others, not for oneself.

Happy Holidays to all and sundry!

If only people thought of others all year long, and not
just during this commercial season.
