The former glamour model managed to avoid bankruptcy earlier this week as she struggles to get her finances in order.
But one way she could reduce her outgoings is if she stops buying stuff off the Internet.
A source close to Katie exclusively told The Sun Online: "Katie loves online shopping – clothes, shoes, stuff for the kids.
"She loves to order things online and get them delivered, despite all her debts.
"She's wasted thousands of pounds ordering things she doesn't want when they arrive – there's a whole room full of unopened packages in her house.
"And she can't be bothered with the hassle of returning things, so they just sit there gathering dust."
The news comes after Katie, 40, was given three months to come up with a plan to pay off her debts.
On Tuesday, the mother-of-five did not appear at the High Court's Rolls Building for an in-and-out hearing that saw her team submit proposals for an individual voluntary agreement (IVA).
An IVA sees debtors pay back their creditors over a period of time.
Her application will be heard in 12 weeks on October 30.
If it is accepted, Katie's mansion would be safe from re-possession.
In her 2000s heyday, the former Page 3 girl raked in £6.2million for a string of reality shows, £3.5million for an Asda lingerie collection and sold more than three million copies of her books.
But two – soon to be three – expensive divorces and the collapse of her company proved too much for the glamour model to handle.
The Sun revealed the full extent of her financial woes earlier this month, telling how she blew her entire £45million fortune on plastic surgery, luxury holidays and a £1million farm.
Her minimal income has not been enough to cover £10,000 a month repayments on her West Sussex mansion, which is believed to be £100,000 in mortgage arrears.
The sprawling pad near Horsham has a £25,000 a year heating bill and £120,000 army of housekeepers.
