What do you treat yourself to?

If or when you decide to give yourself a treat, what do you have? Is it a bar a chocolate, bottle of wine or some new clothes? Maybe something for the home? Maybe you like to treat someone else instead?

Books.

I just bought a new washing machine. Does that count as a treat?

Elanor · 26/04/14 - 17:03

Nail varnish.

Only if someone puts the washing in for you!

I used to treat myself every month to a couple of large Yankee Candles. I love trying new scents and they last an incredibly long time even if they're left to burn the whole day. Some of them smell amazing.

I haven't done this for a while but it's something I'll eventually get back to!

Having a few hours to myself is a treat I quite enjoy

Wasnt there a shop called Lush that sold all smelly soaps etc? This reminds me of walking past that shop.

I saw a TV show about that place in an 'undercover boss' type of scenario.
She looked a good person/company to work for.

I've just bought a Sea and Sand Yankee candle, the next best thing to a holiday somewhere exotic

Me too, I've just bought Thursday's Children by Nicci French, having read the first three in the series. My Saturday night is complete.

Lemon muffins or almond croissants, this is a very recent thing. The local Lidls where I get my fruit & veg has just opened an in store bakery. I can see the pounds going on already. But I can not resist the warm pastries when I smell them...*drools unattractively*.
I blame my unusual and sudden sweet tooth on a recent nasty relationship break up, comfort food innit.

Mine was always books, but my house is slowly disappearing under them, and I've sworn off buying anymore until I have a good cull and take some to the charity shop.

venusinflares · 26/04/14 - 17:32

I treat myself to Yankee Candles too. I love them, I lit sparkling lemon earlier and the whole house smells lovely.

I've got several large and medium jars, plus tea lights.

Got a new mop head last week.

I prefer wine, though. Or a real book, instead of Kindle downloads, which are what I tend to buy for convenience.

Billy_Value · 26/04/14 - 17:36

Teddybleads · 26/04/14 - 17:38

Cheese. I aim a fiend for cheese and walk past a very good cheese shop twice a day.

Games or music, usually. Or something for my r/c cars. Some sort of new toy.

Guylian Seashells. Can quite easily get though a box in less than 10 minutes, and have a box 3 or 4 nights in a row.,,.thank goodness I work out and only get a craving every now and then.

Marc_Anthony1 · 26/04/14 - 18:06

It could be many things, clothes, shoes. I bought myself a gorgeous laptop before Christmas last year. I buy sweets and chocolate sometimes, or different alcohol etc.

Billy_Value · 26/04/14 - 18:07
