What is your favorite luxury?
The one you can't live without, get more often and makes you feel well pampered.

Re: s/o GTKY, poll

  • My fav luxury is a spa pedicure done by a man.  Men do the best ones and give the best massage!!  I can NOT live with out one especially during the summer when my feet are in the open all the time.

    My 2nd luxury is an expensive purse.  I don't know why but I feel weird if I have a cheap purse.  I got that from my MOM!!

  • Loading the player...
  • having my eyebrows threaded.  I feel so much more confident when my brows are professionally groomed.

  • I don't know why I did this poll without knowing my answer.
    Well, I have to say the Aveda hair mask I truly love. And my Droid, though I just learned I can live without it during the holidays I just missed it a lot!

  • Does eating out count? Me and H eat out 2 to 4x a week and although it's expensive, it's such a great way for us to get out and take a load off. I love it.

  • I'm a purse snob Embarrassed

    I also thoroughly enjoy good lotions/creams (face, hands, body).  I can live without it, for sure, but I really love it.

  • Going on vacation.  It's so important for me to get the hell out of here at least once a year!  We make sure to budget & plan so we can, no matter what, even with all the expense of infertility tx.

  • I have to agree with the purse thing.  I also love getting my hair done.  It's the best when they wash your hair!  Oh and I can't pass up a good spa pedi!

  • Monthly massage at Massage Envy!

  • This sounds strange, but probably food! I like to cook so I splurge on groceries and the farmer's market.

    After 2 1/2 years TTC, 3 IUI's, endo, and a lap, a surprise BFP brought us Alexandra Marie!

  • My favorite luxury is a monthly facial. It adds up and can get a bit pricey but it seriously makes me feel good and helps me relax.  Anything that can help me w/ relaxation is worth every cent!

  • I'm lovin' so many of this answers--trips and food especially. But for me, the one thing I tend to "treat" myself to quite a bit, is a pedicure! LOVE it. . .actually, I think I'm about due for one :)

  • Oh boy....I love all of it!  Except the pricey purses, I have never had one and I am fine without it.

    Realistic - going to happen luxeries -

    my morning coffee and annual vacations, although this year kinda sucked in the vacay department...

     Real treats - (read, if we can afford it)

    facials, massages and highlights for my hair

    Hallelujah, it's a miracle, I have children AND a signature!

    TTC since February 2009

    Dx low progesterone October 2010, IUI success and then a total surprise!
  • I love Odwalla Mango Tango juice. So much that I'm a little obsessed with it. Its not a Coach purse like luxuary but its one I can afford lol

  • Conditioning hair treatment, which comes with a fabulous scalp massage. If you never had a scalp massage, you have to try it, it is amazingly relaxing!
  • I love going to the spa for massages, facials, and pedicures.  I don't do any of them very often, but I always intend to go a few times a year.  I actually have a massage scheduled for next week pre my work busy season, and I'm thinking I need to book a facial too!  

    I also love love to travel.  I require DH that we go on at least one nice vacation a year.  However, if I ever actually get KU and get to be a SAHM, I agreed to forego that.

  • I am guilty for getting my nails done every 2 weeks. I love the time with the other ladies gossiping and just being able to leave work and ttc behind and de stress. I also made a new friend who gets her nails done the same time as me and found out she is also seeking treatment and now we are ttc buddies :) its kinda nice to have someone else to talk to who understands.

    I am also a purseaholic! But im a Coach girl all the way!!! I honestly do not carry any other bag now! My work/messenger bag is Coach, my personal bag, id holder necklace, wallet, wristlets, gloves, scarf, etc. I think its a sickness. I told DH for my 30th i want a cake with the Coach C's on it in purple :) But i got smart and now only buy in the outlets when they have 20% off your entire purchase!
