    A hair cut...because it will last beyond the day, the feeling of indulgence. A decent set of underwear...makes you feel better and bras should be replaces regularly. Some thing warm for winter coming...a wonderful piece of knitwear than can be worn over what ever I already own. Something superb smelling for a hot bath at the end of the day. :)
  • Save it until there was something I really wanted to buy with it!

    There's no point in going out to spend it for the sake of it.

    Haircut for me, haven't had one in 2 years!!

    Then new bras as mine are expensive. Also a nice pair of flat boots, as winter's coming along with the rain and I hate my feet getting wet...
  • Wow, girls thanks for the ideas,But how does a spa sound? I was longing for one, for a very long time.
    Approx how much will it cost me?

    I would avoid groupon like the plague quite frankly for a spa.

    My hubby got me a spa treatment for my birthday last year. It cost him just over £100 and i got a full body massage and a facial.

    Not sure where you live, but Nirvana near Reading is brilliant, and they do Day Spa offers. 6 indoor pools, and a new outdoor pool for starters, then loads of treatments and extras.
