1.  we admitted we were powerless over buying cds --
that our pocketbooks had become unmanageable.

2.  came to believe that a wallet greater than ours
could restore us to sanity.

3.  turned our will and our lives over to the care of
audities, as we understood it.

4.  made a searching and fearless cd inventory.

5. admitted to audities, ourselves, and another human
being, the exact nature of our wrongs.

6. became entirely ready to have audities remove all
our old and crappy cds.

7. humbly asked auditeers to remove our extra cds.

8. made a list of all cds we had purchased, and became
willing to make trades of them all.

9. made direct trades to auditeers whenever possible,
except when to do so would injure them or others.

10. continued to take personal inventory, and when we
bought too much, promptly admitted it.

11. sought through posts and conversation to improve
our conscious contact with audities, as we understood
it, asking only for knowledge of good pop and the
power to carry that out.

12. having had a spiritual awakening as a result of
these steps, we tried to carry this message to cd
buyaholics, and to practice these principles in all
our affairs.

think that will help?
