This sentence is confusing me. I don’t know how to make it correct.?
I know that “Every weekend I possibly can” isn’t a complete sentence, but it’s supposed to tie in with the other sentence. But I don’t want to put a comma after “let’s go shopping” because I want to capture the enthusiasm of a teenage girl who wants to go shopping.

I think you want to place the strength on the quotation, not on that opening part. That opening is a sort of commentary without passion. Get right TO the passion.
Perhaps:
“Let’s go shopping–every weekend of the year!”
Hey, I’m not the first teenager to scream it. I’m just the loudest.
OR Make 2 sentences… I like to go shopping every weekend. I am not the only person to feel that way.
I can’t possibly be the only teenager out there who wants to go shopping every weekend.
It is only normal for a person of my age to feel the need to go shopping every single weekend.
I can tell you many ways to reword it…
You don’t need a comma, and putting one doesn’t really minimize that teenage girl’s enthusiasm
Every chance I get I scream, “let’s go shopping!”
or
Like every other teenage girl out there, on weekends I always scream, “let’s go shopping!”
Hope I gave you some ideas!
