What are your extravagant spends that you have zero guilt about

[LittlePrecious]

My mum lives about 130 miles away from me. I visit her three times a year. I always get an Uber there and a first-class train back.

My friend nearly fell off her seat laughing at my extravagance when I told her about this earlier today😅😅😅

My DH has a bit of a tinned fish habit and can easily spend £70 a month on it.

What ridiculous, extravagant things do you spend money on with zero guilt?

Our library service offers audio books for free through borrowbox. Might be worth seeing if yours does too.

Bella Freud jumpers
Gigs at least twice a month - live music is my happy place
Charlotte Tilbury makeup

Love everyone’s replies. Life really is too short not to treat yourself & surround yourself with things that bring you joy 😊

Oh my god, I'd love this 😍

every time I open that extra door to get some milk or butter or spices out, it makes me grin like an idiot, and sometimes even say "tee hee hee" when there is nobody in the kitchen but me.😂

My ‘gym’ membership is a luxury spa.
Facial every other week.
Lindberg glasses (so comfortable, only just discovered these)
Dining out regularly
Housekeeper (very new splurge and I love her)
Aveda hair stuff instead of whatever was on offer in the supermarket (another recent change)

I work long hours and until recently couldn’t bring myself to spend much on myself, personally (on the kids, always, but never just on indulging myself). I now seem to be very good at it!

Mounjaro!

Oh and theatre tickets! I go monthly at least, love musicals

I'm pretty crap at really treating myself, i struggle to spend money on treats for me (such as candles, clothes etc, always go for the cheap option or do without) .
I do appreciate that I just buy whatever I want in the supermarket shop and have my heating on whenever I want (which is always).
I do go on holiday as much as I can so that's my extravagance I guess, I find it easier to spend on experiences than I do stuff.

French butter with all the seasalt!
Great coffee
My milk deliveries (the milkman is a bit of a luxury where I live)
Just really good food, I think. I love cooking. I don't eat out much but I adore cooking and baking and really enjoy doing this for others.
Oh and lately, perfume. I wasn't allowed to wear perfume in my marriage so now that I'm divorced, I've gone a little mad. Well, not mad but I'm really enjoying buying things that smell lovely and things that make me smell lovely.

My cat, she’s a Ragdoll and the most perfect, soft, amazing, clever creature ever to be created and worth every single penny.

I spend 75/month on a running coach. A man at my running club laughed at me and asked whatever for (the fact I had a coach, I didnt disclose their fee) But its given me back my motivation to exercise, to prioritise my own exercise and wellbeing, and made me believe in myself (as well as improve results at races!)

We also spend quite a ridiculous amount on sky TV mainly for football, golf and F1 who knew how many football games there were during the week!

Blimey, where are you? We could package up a whole box of crumpets for your freezer and (probably) post them for less than that!

You’ve painted such a beautiful picture I can well imagine the joy you get from your audible book. 💐

Horses, cats, chickens, and plants.
Had horses all my life, can't imagine a life without them.
Cats are all rescues and cost more to feed than the horses do!
The chickens are my DH's fault - he bought me an incubator for Christmas a couple of years ago. It's addictive.
And I have to buy a lot of plants to replace the ones the chickens destroy🤷‍♀️

Mostly one off stuff
£1800 on a root canal and crown I could have had under my dentist plan. I went elsewhere to be properly numbed and have a same day crown
£880 ish on a mattress

Lego sets.... just spent a lot of money on the monet water lilly set!! I have about 8 sets to build....😁

Highlights to hair
Jo Malone perfume
Private dental treatment

Holidays, days out, weekends away. We lost a child in the family this year and I'm so incredibly grateful for the memories, pictures etc... Even before then the quality time with family and seeing the world through little eyes is priceless.

Agree, I eat it every day too, it's amazing. Yeo Valley 5% fat for me, costs about £5 from Ocado for a big pot and I get through 2 a week, but so worth it.

Atkinsons coffee (if you know you know) freshly ground in store in front of me for my espresso machine
Good quality, proper olive oil

Probably my two dogs. Around £300 a month for food, insurance, vet plan and grooming! Worth every single penny though.

.A Gails muffin and earl grey tea twice a week

.Glass bottled water from waitrose

.Blow dry once a week, it costs £30 and it's the only time ai wash my hair, I feel so good afterwards. Im so terrible at doing my own hair.

.My gym membership which is at a nice hotel and costs £99

I spent many years being poor so feel so grateful to do these things.

Reformer Pilates, micro needling and lululemon leggings.

Are we talking Warburton's? They're about £1 here. If you sent me a postage label, I'd send them to you!
