How do you treat yourself?

Hi,

I recently did a poll about how you treat yourself but found the options quite restrictive and would be nice to know how others treat themselves. :)

Think i must be boring as i think a treat for myself is my Now magazine and a shandy :rotfl:

I'm telling a lie, i actually feel buying make up and stuff a treat but others may see it as essentials...we are all so different aren't we. Would be nice to nosey in other people's treats.

    I definitely head to boots to treat myself. Love anything that smells nice and products for my hair. If I was going to treat myself tomorrow (which I'm not because I'm being good until payday) I would buy a lovely bottle of perfume.

    I shop.

    I have a stupid amount of clothes and shoes and boots ( I have a real thing about boots) and handbags and still I shop.

    It makes me happy:j

    i dont really treat myself very often but when i do its normally with new make up or body creams ,
    i kind of class my trial beauty products as a treat as most of them are expensive brand names that normally i wouldnt be able to afford :-)

    me too, I love boots, thankfully nearly all of my shopping is done second hand (charity shops, carboots, jumble sales, ebay etc) so I can have a good shop but not spend too much, but I need to move away from 'treating' myself in this way as regular as I do
