Tell me what to treat myself to?

[CatLadyToddlerMother]

My granddad has given me a credit card to spend money on myself, it has £500 limit on it and I am allowed to max it out if I want to.

But I don't know what I want! I am not allowed to spend any of the money on my DD (aged 3) as I spend any spare money on her as it is.

So what do I want?

I like gadgets but already have amazon echo dots in living room and kitchen, I also like Sims 4 and have most of the expansion packs for that but don't get much time to play it as DD has SN so spend a lot of time sorting her out (I am an LP). I like cats (hence the username), wax melts and chocolate.

I also have a cat who I am allowed to spend money on too.

I don't want to spend a huge amount as it's a lot of money, but granddad says it needs to feel like a treat and a bit of luxury.

If you can't decide what to buy, maybe an experience? (Or several?)

I recently went on a lovely silver-clay jewellery day, we made amazing jewellery and I took it home.

Or a trip? City break type thing.

A winter coat
Hair done
Beauty advent calendar

Handbag? Niece piece of jewellery? A watch perhaps.

What a lovely man!

What are your interests?

A credit card? So your grandad will be paying interest on it?

If thats the case, i wouldnt be spending anything, but thats just me

LondonLassInTheCountry He'll have paid it off by December, he's got quite a comfortable life (owns on home with no mortgage, has a decent car, regularly out for meals etc with his family and friends), never struggles for money and is very generous.

Interests. I like swimming, gadgets like I said; I have an Iphone, Ipad and smart speakers, I walk most places as I don't have a car, I like swimming. Oh and crime dramas both reading and watching them.

A very classic handbag and if there's enough left over a really nice pair of earrings. I love Alex Monroe! Check out Alex Monroe earrings.

New eyebrows :) and a facial

A mini break or towards a nice holiday .
A couple of nice things that willl last like a nice winter coat
New boots .

Expensive jacket?
Bag?
I would probably spend it on some beauty treatments, possibly a night/weekend away?
Beauty calendar then you will get a treat every day in December?

netflix subscription or cinema pass?

swimming watch ie apple watch

all new nice makeup

I’d say a proper treat would be some luxury time off

Do you have someone who can have DD for the day?

I’d either take a friend or go solo and have a fabulous day out. A wonderful lunch (or afternoon tea if that’s your thing), a massage, buy a fabulous dress and shoes and then on somewhere for cocktails.

What a lovely, caring man your grandad is! How about treating yourself to something you can keep to remind you him? An ornament, a picture? Anything that makes you smile.

Or something to treat each of your senses, so something nice to look at, something to listen to - or through - some headphones perhaps? A fancy candle for the smell, a soft, snuggly blanket for the touch, and something yummy to taste.

Sims 4, cats and crime dramas? Can we be BFFs OP? 

Do you need something for your computer? New headphones or keyboard perhaps? I'd probably spend it on a new winter wardrobe if I had £500. I know your grandad doesn't want you to spend it on your DD, but what about a weekend away? Butlins? She's the perfect age for that sort of thing.

Smart winter coat and boots or handbag.

Get some good quality shoes and a top notch coat. They should last you ten years.

driggle I always need new friends so sure

A new cat? A British short hair? The are too cute

Shopping? Hair done? Driving lessons? Expensive clothes/shoes? A holiday? A spa day?

Nice pieces for your bedroom? Furniture or accessories , huge mirror? New coffee machine?

Jewellery or something you can keep as a reminder of your granddad giving you the money?

If someone gave me £500 now, I’d go on a yoga retreat.

Oh I think I agree with the cost
A really good quality classic style one that you would bring out every year. Maybe a lovely quality scarf too.

That's so nice!!

He's obviously giving you a hint to put yourself first for a change so I would get a mix of frivolous and classic things you will use a lot.

Eg a nice haircut, a new swimming costume, a good quality coat, boots, trainers, sunglasses. Maybe a piece of jewellery you could wear often?

Headphones for swimming?

Something you’ll be able to keep. My grandad used to do this a lot for me, he died at the beginning of the year and the things he bought me mean so much more now. (((Looks at washing machine and Barbour jacket)))
