What do you splurge on?

Travel. We go out of town a lot and we always upgrade our hotel rooms. After having bedbugs, I am super picky about where we stay and read tons of reviews.

I splurge on baby clothes/accessories and travel. If an outfit for FDD has a matching headband or shoes, I will absolutely buy it. Gymboree particularly really suckers me in this way. Pre-baby, H and I took a big trip every year. Obviously, with DD, our destinations will probably change (no more adults-only all inclusives), but we plan to still try and vacation a lot.

LOL at splurging. Maybe when I spend $4 on a hot vanilla chai at the drive thru coffee stand in town?

I'd say my splurge is coffee too. And maybe a cocktail when I go out now and then (I'll buy the crazy $15 ones, they really are delicious!)

yes, + 1 on trips too.  DH and I ( pre- baby) were splurging on big European vacays every spring/ summer. Since V, it's been smaller, shorter domestic trips.  Maybe next year we will get back at it, with or without her.

I don't have any regular splurge items but I have zero issue dropping a lot on my hair a couple of times a year or going out to dinner at more expensive places.

As for shoes, i only wear comfortable ones. But I used to like to buy really awsome, impractical (by my standards) ones just to have them and look at them. I no longer do that but I still love pretty shoes.

At the moment nothing - I know! I'm boring!. We're saving our pennies so I'm not allowed to splurge! Haha. Doesn't mean I don't plan to. I'm currently planning a maternity clothes splurge as they are a "necessity".. And also really cute!. My most recent splurge was new glasses & sunglasses because I needed a new prescription for driving. I don't have a picture of them. I'm planning a pamper day for myself too because my hair is in serious need of a cut.

I don't know if I really "splurge" on anything. I used to shop for clothes quite a bit, but that has slowed down a lot since B arrived. I guess I splurge most on clothes, books and other items for B.

I will say that if we need anything, neither DH nor I will hesitate to go out and get it. We buy high quality things (clothing, housewares, food, etc) and I do feel like we don't have to replace things as often as we would if we bought cheaper items.

Going out to eat, baby clothes, vacations, family parties. My mom's cooking was never great, very plain, and i dont get pleasure from cooking most things myself. Vacations and parties i like to obsess about every little detail.

Does Starbucks count?
