What would you treat yourself to if you had a spare £100 to buy yourself something nice? A nice sweater, perfume or something else?

Winter boots. Mine are 4 years old.

We went to a pub recently to celebrate a birthday. We were 4 and had 3 starters, 4 mains and 2 glasses of wine. The bill came to £160. So £100 won’t get you far these days.

Probably perfume.

I've always had a hankering for a Christmas village, so maybe a shop or two. Love looking at them set up so nicely at the garden centre!

I’d buy some fish, my favourite meal and it’s so expensive, MrJ doesn’t like it, so all for me.

I am all about clothes so if I had a spare 100 pound it would be a trip to TK Maxx I think and if I had any spare would buy a nice Reed diffuser as well. I do love red wine and nice food though and always would love to treat DH so maybe that should be my answer.
I love Mel1967’s answer though, you are a women after my own heart. X

Ooh I missed that Jax I love a cocktail but sadly I have treated myself to an Advent Calendar this year and two would be a bit much.
However next year…. If I’m spared, as an old friend used to say.
