We are, in the famed words of Madonna, living in a material world. And I, am indeed, a material girl...ish. As much as I try to resist the temptation of buying for the sake of buying, I am merely a cog in a vast capitalist regime. And as a oppressed component of the proletariat sometimes a little retail therapy eases the pain.
So I raise a glass to you Marx. I will break free of my chains and overthrow capitalism... just let me pop into Harvey Nicks first.
