Plot
Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher) is a shopping addict who lives with her best friend Suze (Krysten Ritter).She works as a journalist for a gardening magazine but dreams to join the fashion magazine Alette.On the way to an interview with Alette,she buys a green scarf.Her credit card is declined,so Rebecca goes to a hot dog stand and offers to buy all the hot dogs if the seller gives her back change in cash,saying the scarf is to be a gift for her sick aunt.The hot dog vendor refuses but a man offers her $20.
When Rebecca arrives at the interview,she's told that the position has been filled.However,the receptionist tells her there is an open position with the magazine Successful Saving.Rebecca interviews with Luke Brandon (Hugh Dancy),the editor of Successful Savings and the man who just gave her the $20.She hides her scarf outside his office,but Luke's assistant comes into the office and gives it back to her.Rebecca knows the game is up and leaves.
That evening,drunk,she and Suze write letters to Alette and Successful Saving,but she mails each to the wrong magazine.Luke likes the letter she meant to send to Alette and hires her.Rather than completing a work assignment for a new column,Rebecca goes to a clothing sale.While inspecting a coat,she realizes it is not 100% cashmere,which gives her an idea for the column,which is an instant success.
