What are your luxuries?

Options
Just for fun, what are your luxuries? Things you don't HAVE to have or use, but you'd never scrimp on :rolleyes:

We have a cleaner once a week and even now we're skint there's no way I'd go without her. Lazy I know but I really hate cleaning, I'd rather save the money somewhere else.

    £30 for four hours- but my DH works from home and she cleans his studio so part of it is tax deductible.

    I'm sure we could find a cleaner cheaper but I think what we pay her is fair.

    I guess my only "luxury", if you could call them that, are my animals as they're not strictly a necessity and more for personal enjoyment. Other than that, I guess an ounce of baccy and a couple of bottles of wine a week are my only regular pleasures these days LOL! ;)

    Everything....
    In this trusted place U can erase
    Every tear that ever rolled down your weary face
    All the time U waste in that paper chase
    Is time better spent in these arms of mine
  • A neck, back and shoulder massage once in a while..heaven!
