For me it is a few things:

A decent kids bike. One made with kid's geometry in mind, not just a mini adults bike.

Marmite. No other yeast extract compares!

My dishwasher...it is the one kitchen appliance that I could not live without!

A house in the right area on the right street with the right aspect.

A nice bottle of Sauvignon blanc
A really good meal out
A really nice candle that burns strongly and fills the house with lovely homely scents

My cleaner. I'm lost without her! I detest cleaning with a hot passion.

Psychologika I'm just very grateful for all the opportunities he has- two matches a week for everybody, plays on a stage every year, the opportunity to flexi-board (which he absolutely doesn't have to do- but loves). No SATs (or any) pressure and the chance to be a child until the end of Year 8 rather than 6.

Oh, and the day is 8-5 for everybody, with a huge take-up on 7am-6(or 7.30)pm, so it enables me to work (which I want to) without him feeling dumped in wrap-around.

Mcvities digestives, fairy liquid and decent toilet roll. Also our cleaner.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 23/04/2020 18:46

Yes to Marmite and Lurpak!

My MacAir - it's so beautiful and stroke-able.

Kindle

Good cheese and good bread

Clarins shoulder massages

One particular local restaurant which is £££ but so worth it

Shopping local - we're lucky enough to have a nice range of indie bars and restaurants and would far rather give my money to them than to Dominos etc

Decent coffee ..... I can economise on most things but I must drink fresh ground coffee.

And a good bed (in fact two good beds so I can sleep apart from DH Grin).

golddustwomen · 23/04/2020 18:47

Definitely the trampoline and sand pit the past couple of weeks.
Just me though I would say my cordless dyson and my new machine machine, after only having third hands before. Christ my stuff has never been so clean!

Twospaniels · 23/04/2020 18:50

Ruff and tumble dog drying coats. They are expensive but amazing.

Panasonic bread machine. Expensive but vastly superior than cheaper tat. Marmite too. Butter. never 'spread', @curdsandwhey Oh definitely!! and their magnifying mirror...

hermionegrange · 23/04/2020 18:56

A hair wrap towel for your wet hair when getting out of the shower.

PerditaProvokesEnmity · 23/04/2020 19:00

Forgot the coffee! The weekly beans delivery is making the difference between forbearance and despair at the moment.

Walt Disney world
Eyebrow microblading
Snag tights

It’s no use at the minute but I’d say my electric blanket. Only cost about £30 and use it nearly every night in winter, it’s so nice getting into a warm bed!
