You have £100 and must spend it on yourself, what would you buy?

Liking the sound of a whole house clean Hetty58 Ive lost my mojo with housework

Bright smiling yellow pansies for the winter plantings.

That still sounds like my idea of hell MOnica. Not for me.

Lyndylou No one fusses over you on a spa day.

Go to a good spa and it is all about swimming pools, jaccuzzis. steam rooms, saunas and a whole plethora of other water experiences, which you wander around and use, as you wish, plus, of course a nice lunch and other refreshments.

If you want 'fussing', and I hate fussing, you would need to book beauty treatments, which we never do.

When I win the lottery this weekend I will enjoy treating everyone of us, so if you haven't thought of anything yet hurry up!

Big pots for the little patio in front of my flat. Then a bag of compost and plants for a good display throughout the year. That should take care of £100 - or more.

The botany book that I've wanted for ages costs £66 99 in paperback form .
In hardback it's over £150 .

I hate to be fussed over too. A spa day is my idea of hell.

I think I would opt for a pair of Rolling Stones Sketchers with the tongue logo on. They would look good for walking the dog.

If I could share it with DH, it would be a visit to Harry Potter world. If it’s just for me,
a bottle of Paco Rabanne Fame. My current one is nearly empty. Any left over, on a new lipstick.

I really really don’t either. The idea of a spa day would see me running for the hills! I hate being fussed over!

A Moda Jelly Roll(pre-cut strips of 42 different cottons) to make a fab Christmas quilt, a lovely embroidered velvet cushion , for cosy autumn vibes a new book - Cider Mill Coven and I'd spend any/all change on Lindt Reindeer. I'd love every minute of shopping for that lot too so include a visit to good coffee shop!

GSM neither do I , but maybe I’ve been conditioned to think I don’t like it? (Although I really really don’t.)

I don’t like pampering!

Ali hmm sorry it’s ring fenced and has to be spent on you, yourself and nothing else.

No household expenses and no food.

Are we conditioned to think that any spare money has to be ploughed back into the household? Don’t we deserve to be pampered?

It looks as though it’s a difficult concept.

I still can’t think of anything.

I know you said not on household stuff but....I like to be warm & cosy, so some would definitely go towards my heating!
A nice meal out, or a few takeaway meals delivered to me - I'm not one for spa days etc. Although, I'd kind of like to try those little fish that eat dead skin and psoriasis, they sound good!
I've recently had my hair done, am happy with my colour.
Maybe a bottle of perfume, I particularly like The Body Shop's White Musk, so maybe a new bottle with body cream & talc.
I'm sure I'd find plenty to spend it on.

As a craft addict, probably more wool to knit or crochet with.

For the last couple of months I have been longing to knit a lovely sweater that I saw a pattern for on Ravelry but even the 'cheap' version ( i.e., using a cheaper yarn than the one stated in the pattern) felt too expensive to justify, coming in at over £40 for yarn and pattern, but with £100 I wouldn't hesitate, and might even push the boat out and go for the recommended wool for once!

I’d get a manicure regularly and have steak for dinner every week until the money runs out. Good shoes?
I would get flowers, but I already always have flowers in the house and too many house plants…

Sorry, no food allowed.

I like the idea of flowers but MrOops is allergic, so would be sneezing all day. Every day.

I was looking today at a tour of the Royal Mint, and a VIP tour costs £99, so that’s what I’d get.

😲 Do you get a souvenir set of coins included Casdon

I went on a tour but obviously it wasn't a VIP one at the price I paid. I did get to strike my own £1 coin just before they went out of circulation 😁

Sadly no coins included, but it sounds really good.
‘This tour gives you an exclusive talk from a curator of The Royal Mint Museum, which hosts a world-famous collection of rare historic coins, medals and precious numismatic artefacts that aren’t on public display. This spectacular tour includes visits to the commemorative coin production line along with lunch and afternoon refreshments at the café.’

I cant think of anything I want or need,would probably be books and bits and pieces that dont cost much.

Actually, scrap the jacket. I’d like the family photo too.

Bella23

A family photo at a studio.

That’s what I would like too.

I have more than enough party outfits from the days when I used to have more parties. But M & S have an embroidered black velvet jacket that would be perfect for Christmas. £99.

A spa day at my favourite spa with DH and DD or DGD

A chauffeur to drive me somewhere different.

I would buy the wool to make myself a new gansey
