TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

Let's Play a Game.

You have $200 extra dollars to spend. Here are the rules:

1) You can't pay a bill or a debt.

2) It must be something for yourself.

What would you buy?

Re: Let's Play a Game.

  • I would buy a military style jacket that would be perfect for my new job. I would also buy some killer new shoes. I would PIP, but I am at work and can't access tinypic.

  • OK - Can I have $225? Big Smile

    If I had extra money to throw around, I would buy another one of these..... I have one already, but my high school sweetheart got it for me and our names are engraved so I can't wear it (at least I don't feel right wearing it).

  • $80=hour long massage

    $120=I've been wanting to try acupuncture. Not sure how much it is, though.  I need to look into that.

  • Hmmmm...it just so happens that I got $200 from my MIL for my birthday and I bought a string hammock chair and stand so I can sit outside and read for hours and hours. Like this, but with a string hammock instead of the fabic kind:

    But if I had ANOTHER $200 to just blow on whatever? I'd get some fancy pants yarn from here: https://www.greatnorthernyarns.com And then I'd go to Godiva and splurge on something yummy. And if I had any money left over, I'd get another pair of Chuck Taylors. Big Smile

  • I would put it toward a new King sized bed.

    The Doodle refuses to sleep on her pillow and while I like cuddling with her, we're running out of room!

  • Shoes....need I say more.

    I LOVE MY CHAIR HAMMOCK. TO AN IRRATIONAL DEGREE. I REALLY, REALLY DO.

    Ok, now that that is taken care of...with $200 I would go get a spa treatment at a fancy shmancy Scottsdale spa and then lay around by the spa pool drinking mojitos.

  • OK, LOVE the chair hammock. I have never seen one before! It's not sunny for very long in Seattle which is why I have never seen one.

    Kristy, LOVE the necklace- so.... luxurious!

    I'm also loving the massage/spa day stuff. It's been soooo long for me!

    Thanks for playing girls!

  • I would start with a massage.  Then maybe a gift certificate for another massage in a week or so....

  • Def some pampering. Massage, mani/pedi, and the new hairdo I want so badly!
  • I am obsessed with Vera Bradly...so I would def buy one of the luggage pieces...or 2 if they were on sale...which if you stalk the website enough they have GREAT sales!

    Dude, *I'm* in Seattle and I'm totally rocking the chair. And when it's not sunny anymore? I'll still be out there in it...as long as it's not raining.

    Come on up to Bothell and I'll let you try it out. Big Smile

  • I would buy another pair of Paige premium jeans. I love them, but sometimes I feel bad spending the money on them.

    All of this!  Spa day!  I'm very into these things (when I can afford them) & not much of a shopper.  I love love love pampering though!
