Physical violence may need to be authorised to restrain me from entering JB-Hifi ever again.

I'm obsessed with spending money at JB. Honestly, they could just set up a shop outside my house and they'd probably make more money than Sanity or HMV do with their Burke st shops. A list of all the things that I have bought in the past year from JB (not including gifts for other people).

The 39 Steps

Okay, that list is a little scary looking back at it. For a person with no real income, that's far too many purchases. Hmm.

So, I expect physical restraints to remove me from JB-Hifi, should anyone see me in there. I guess, though, that's not really going to solve the problem as many of them were bought from their online shop…
