1. Exercise is good for you, so hustling around the mall with those heavy shopping bags can be quite the workout. Okay, so we're an online shopping site, but do you know how many calories are burned every time you click the mouse? Neither do we. We do know that digging through your wallet or purse to find a credit card has to count for something though, right? Right? Good.

2. Last year is so last year, this year is almost over, and next year is in! Looking your best and carrying the right accessories can make or break careers, help land the lover of your dreams, and could bring harmony to the universe. So we embellished a bit on the last one, but still, it helps.

3. Money is burning a hole in your pocket and could possibly ignite your pants if left unchecked. As a matter of public safety, shopping for something, for anything, might be the only way to squelch the problem. We'd look silly walking around without any pants too, so to shopping-marketplace.com we go!

4. So you gained a few pounds, lost a few pounds, or want to act like you gained or lost a few pounds. Just like changing styles, changing waistlines present an opportunity to shop, even if not for clothes. Go from a size 12 to a size 8; congratulations, have an armoire. Go from a size 8 to a size 6? My phone number is 867-5309. Just kidding, but congratulations nonetheless.

5. Shopping feels good. Admit it, now breathe in slowly and count to 5, as in the 5th reason to go shopping.
