What little things do you buy if you are finally financially stable?

I'm not talking big houses or flash cars. More innocuous things.
Mine is fresh lemons and limes. I'm extremely frugal when it comes to shopping and always bought the bottles of concentrated juice for cooking or drinks but realised in the past year or so I've added them to my grocery shop without a second thought about the extra couple of quid.

Legs of Iberico Bellota ham from Spain Camera equipment Bikes Lego sets Paints and drawing pencils

Wow - actual legs of ham? The ones you see hanging up in delis with the trotter?

For a little bit of affordable luxury, can I recommend fox and ivy bath sheets from Tesco?! They are huge and really soft, £15 each. Sorry not exactly following with thread but kind of relevant ish.

It's nice to be able to replace the car, oven, fridge freezer or other large purchase when they suddenly need it without worrying about the funds to cover it. But I think the best part about being financially secure is never having to say no to the children (obviously within reason!)

This. We've had to replace a few white goods recently as well as bits inside a fridge which were ridiculously priced too. I like buying the DCs nice things every now and again without worry.
