What would you buy if you had the money?

Hi there
Just a quick thread for fun to see what sort of stuff people would love to treat themselves to but cant quite stretch them to on their budget or would need a bit more cash...
What would you buy for yourself if you had the money / got a wee windfall or extra spare cash?
Not really talking if you won millions or anything
For me ours had been a kitchenaid which we managed to get after a wee extra income of cash but am wondering what yours would be!

Nice towels... We can afford the new bathroom but lovely soft towels are out of the budget until the sales. Some of ours are 10+ years old and stolen from my parents.
Or a kitchen aid mixer but I'm not sure I'd want to spend "our" windfall on me. I'd like to treat us both...

A very expensive watch - an Omega Seamaster or similar. My plan once my mortgage is paid off is to use the "mortgage payments" to pay for it.0

I'd buy a memory foam mattress as our current one is getting old and lumpy or pay for OH to have a website designed for his business.0

Hmm.... its a toss up between a new kitchen floor or a new leather suite for the living room. Both are desperate to be replaced.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

We've been really lucky recently and have been able to buy a new bedroom set (triple wardrobe, chest of drawers and bedside table), replaced our old washing machine, bought a tumble dryer and today I'm waiting for a dishwasher to be delivered.
My son has had a small chunk placed into his savings account and we were also able to get him a few more gifts for his birthday (he had important hospital appointments on the day of his birthday, the poor boy deserved them)

I would buy driving lessons and a little run around.0
