How Do You Treat Yourself?

Ask a Question

What do you guys buy as a treat for yourself? Like a reward. Lol ๐Ÿ˜ I usually buy books ๐Ÿ“š for my collection!

I donโ€™t buy handbags ๐Ÿ‘œ or clothes havenโ€™t for years

Just thought this is an interesting ๐Ÿง chat ๐Ÿ’ฌ topic!

I very rarely treat myself. One the very rare occasion when I do it is clothes, but only during the sales. I got ยฃ200 worth of clothes from George for ยฃ35 during the sale. That is me done treating myself for a long time.

I like to treat others and that helps me feel good. I feel bad for spending money on myself, but love spending on my animals.

Getting a deal or something for FREE actually IS a treat for me!

But I do LOVE my 'BOBS' which I have a pair of trainers and slippers, these are the 2 things that I've really wanted for myself.

Exactly I do agree with you! Getting free items a treat for me! Especially when itโ€™s my birthday ๐Ÿฅณ which is in September!

Oh wow ๐Ÿคฉ they are very nice trainers ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ and slippers ๐Ÿฅฟ do they cost a lot?

I got these for free last week! Perfume samples I get now and again the other is a lip treatment and went to town to get M&S sweets ๐Ÿญ lol ๐Ÿ˜

Even the dumpling ๐ŸฅŸ bag got for free from my Mumโ€™s work place we have a few of those handy bags Image

kitty88uk Awesome! Looks like a good little bunch of freebies ๐Ÿ˜

I'm waiting on arrival of a Molton Brown Perfume sample ๐Ÿคž

Thanks, I love them (not sure they are my exact design of my trainers but mine are similar) I think these ones were both around ยฃ50-ยฃ60 a pair, which is a lot more than I'd ever want to pay for most things, but they are comfy, feel secure and don't seem to hurt my feet like some other shoes and they seem to last a lot longer than those I've paid ยฃ6-ยฃ12 for in the past. So they are completely worth it in my opinion.

Pets wise, just a few reptiles, rabbits and arthropods at the moment ๐Ÿ˜€ but I do walk other people's dogs and love treating those too!

kitty88uk I don't bother with freebies as I rarely receive them. I do love relaxing in front of tv with feet in a bowl of water then using the foot spa treatments I got for Christmas. I rarely buy for myself as I have everything I need. At my age you find your desire for 'stuff' wanes and basically I just buy gifts for others, food and pay bills.
