To treat yourself to something what would it be? Could be 1 thing or lots of little things. For context I'm a female mid thirties

Books.
Always books. And a premium bond.

An exotic pet. Like a llama, or an emu.

What about a monkey? Haven't you always wanted a monkey?

Or maybe a green dress?

iklboo · 04/06/2022 16:21

Massage
Gin or wine
Nice chocolates
New book

I now want a monkey and a green dress.

ImplementingTheDennisSystem · 04/06/2022 16:22

New hiking boots or a water feature for the garden

I've been saving up cash I received at Christmas and my birthday and then topped it up a bit more with a £25 premium bond win to buy a wool duvet which I used a discount voucher on.

I've heard fab reviews, but couldn't justify the cost from usual household budget. So this is real treat to myself.

MajesticElephant · 04/06/2022 16:29

A decent pannier bag for my bike and a wind proof jacket.

TonyBlairsLover · 04/06/2022 16:37

@Squooka google travis the chimp

RaininSummer · 04/06/2022 16:38

Fancy pot and a nice garden plant.

Mosaic123 · 04/06/2022 16:39

Silver bangle

LetsGoCrazyPurpleBanana · 04/06/2022 16:43

A Pom Pom London bag with a couple of straps.

Ooh. Yeah, fair enough, not that one.

(Though, as a grade 8 taxonomy pedant I have to point out that chimps aren't monkeys)

AirPods. I've wanted some for ages, but can't quite justify it.

Buy them, you won’t regret it

for a cheaper option, anker soundcore are good, and only about £40

thefirstmrsrochester · 04/06/2022 16:49

Champagne and oysters to share with my neighbour who is going through a horrible time. I actually do have this secretly planned in a few weeks time and I can’t wait.

I'd get a limousine to go and buy some crazy elephant bones.

RollOnWinter · 04/06/2022 16:55

I'd have my nails done at a nail bar - I'm 6 and have never had my nails done professionally. I'd also have my hair done.

MagnoliatheMagnificent · 04/06/2022 16:57

Where can you buy a llama or emu for £100??

MassiveSalad22 · 04/06/2022 16:57

God I could find lots of things easily. Probably art supplies, something cool from the Tate shop or similar, some books,

You're right. You'd probably need considerably more

HardRockOwl · 04/06/2022 17:14

I just spent £150 on a new Mint Velvet denim jacket and a pair of chequered Vans so a little more than £100 but worth it

Zpoa · 04/06/2022 17:18

@Bopahula if you take @WhereTheLightningBugsBlaze up in the offer and depending on which series they are, I have an original case (son broke the ear buds but still have the case).

Drywhitefruitycidergin · 04/06/2022 17:22

Perfume - I love it but it's just so expensive now for everyday I stick to Next EDP.

You are only 6, you have lots of years ahead of you to get your nails done 😀

Hedonism · 04/06/2022 17:24

Oooh....

A really lovely woollen rug / throw, or perfume, I reckon.
