What was the last item you bought for yourself that wasn't a necessity?

hmm i honestly dont know! when ross was about 3 months old i bought myself some new clothes, that i didnt really need but wanted.

last week i got a massage, but that was covered by our insurance (up to 500$ worth a year) so it didnt cost us anything, but i think thats a necessity

The last thing I can think of, was tapers to stretch my ears again. I bought those on sale with a few dollars my mom gave me to get myself something. I think it was 3 months ago?

I still haven't stretched my ears yet. I need to get on that.

I just got a new cardigan. It wasn't a necessity necessity, but with fall coming and needing to layer I justified it that way. Oh and it was 40% off

stretch your ears? Please explain. What does that mean?

I had a pedicure and manicure a couple of weeks ago. I felt so guilty sitting there. And then the lady cut the cuticles on my fingers and the skin around my nails frayed really badly. I don't think I am having a manicure done again. But the massage chair and the warm water and all that stuff on my feet was sooooooo nice.

I also got a pair of hiking boots that I don't really need, since I have running shoes. But I have a bad back and anything that helps reduce my pain I welcome. The hiking shoes hopefully will absorb the impact and not my back.

About five minutes ago. The Missoni for Target items came out today, and I wanted to buy them all! I ended up buying a sweater coat, a bathing suit, and a nightie. I also bought Claire a sweater dress to ease my guilt about spending on myself

A couple of weeks ago when I was buying Jackson diapers I bought myself some $3 body spray/mist...mine was out and I like to smell good Before that though, it hasn't been anything. We are broke, I can't even buy much needed clothes for myself right now!
