Buying New Clothes: A Beginner's Guide to Avoiding the Vultures

You're fresh off the mission. So fresh you're still looking over your shoulder for your comp. You're vulnerable and people know it.  
Unfortunately, there are the unscrupulous who will try to take advantage of you.      
Right now someone close to you, a family member, or maybe a friend is hovering over you in your weakened state.  
Who is it?  


It will likely be the first person who offers to take you shopping.  Sis, or whoever it is, has a bit of a shopping addiction and to them you're nothing but fresh meat.  A big dope with a wad of cash and an entire wardrobe to revive.  
Four hours later their shopping appetite is satisfied and your wallet emptied.  Where does that leave you?  Well, maybe you will come out okay.  It's likely though you will come home with some clothes you're not so sure about. 
So keep a wary eye out for predators and shop slowly.  Like your daddy used to say, “don’t spend it all in one place kid.”
