    Storyline

    Edit
    Struggling with her debilitating obsession with shopping and the sudden collapse of her income source, Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher) unintentionally lands a job writing for a financial magazine after a drunken letter-mailing mix-up. Ironically writing about the consumer caution of she hasn't heeded, Rebecca's innovative comparisons and unconventional metaphors for economics grant her critical acclaim, public success, and the admiration of her supportive boss Luke Brandon (Hugh Dancy). But as she draws closer to her ultimate goal of writing for renowned fashion magazine Alette, she questions her true ambitions and must determine if overcoming her "shopaholic" condition will bring her real happiness. —The Massie Twins

    • Trivia
      The novel is set in London. The movie changed it to New York City to connect with an American audience. Following the success of Sex and the City (1998), New York City was seen as a selling point to female audiences.
    • Goofs
      When Rebecca takes the green scarf to the counter, the cashier says "That's $120." Rebecca gives her $50 cash, charges $30 on one card, $10 on another card, and tries to put $20 on a different card which is declined. She got the $20 in cash, but the grand total is $110. She tried 2 more blue cards before the golden card was declined. It's very likely at least one of them was charged the missing $10.

    You don't have to be a shopaholic to enjoy "Confessions of a Shopaholic"
    This film is about a girl who cannot control her shopping spree, despite her mounting debts and sudden unemployment.

    I expected "Confessions of a Shopaholic" to be a light-hearted bubblegum comedy, and it exceeded my expectations. Isla Fisher is so delightful and fun as a helpless addict. Her ways to justify shopping and to keep a blind eye on her debt is hilarious. The jokes are squeaky clean and yet they are laugh out loud funny! The constant fashion show enhance the uplifting atmosphere, making me helplessly happy and joyful.

    You don't have to be a shopaholic to enjoy "Confessions of a Shopaholic", as this movie is outrageously hilarious!
