The word "spend" has a negative connotation - it is linked with losing money. Horrible for building a brand around, since it might actually make shoppers realize they are spending (and thus losing) money, without focusing their attention on what they are getting or on the fun of shopping.
Oddly, for branding a domain like SpendLess.com would be more useful...
