Was just wondering... When you decide you want to treat yourself... What do you do or buy for yourself

Marydoll Thu 15-Oct-20 23:36:28

I don't treat myself, I don't deserve it. I'm too badly behaved! ?

Avocados, mangoes and raspberries.

A good book, usually non-fiction.

Plants for the garden and I treat myself waaaaay to often!

Perfume, shoes, bags, scarves, earrings, anything you like really. But now I don’t as we can’t go anywhere in any case.

Nail polish.

Chocolate and a manicure. I’m very shallow.

Books - on my Kindle or from our local independent bookshop.

Thornton’s fudge.

Perfume from duty free.

A nice new second-hand book from our local second-hand book shop and a lazy evening on the settee reading it.

Wandering around the bookshop deciding what book to buy is part of the indulgence.

Macarons

Plants - house plants, garden plants - and all the associated stuff they need to be properly housed and fed.

Then luxury feeders and food for the birds, like sparrow mix and nyger seeds etc.

Books and new CD’s

Manicure

Anything with a shell from the fishmonger!

Mollygo Fri 16-Oct-20 09:35:33

Manicure definitely! Book for my Kindle and earrings.

Usually something to do with genealogy - additional access to a website, some certificates I would like but aren't 'vital' or similar smile

I think Sarah Raven could probably retire on the money I've spent on her seeds/plants/bulbs/garden kit.

Books mainly. And I love little silver rings and treat myself now and again to one from ebay. (new, not used)

obag Fri 16-Oct-20 09:59:46

Books, if I am feeling really indulgent perfume or expensive chocs.

I order unusual food on my delivery and spend the day cooking then eating it!

Davida1968 Fri 16-Oct-20 10:04:20

Nice - but not too expensive - handcream.
