Tell me more about the gucci, I'm looking at the Jackie. Mine: Worth it: Weekly housekeeping Prescription skincare European sunscreen Botox Natural fiber clothing Barre/pilates Threading eyebrows, waxing, laser hair removal Professional pedicure, preferably medical K18 Great jewelry Not: Coloring hair a drastically different shade than the natural, like dark brunette to platinum blonde, too much upkeep Chanel quilted bags, sold them all, need too much care Eyelash tint and lift |
Hanky Panky panties. So glad I dropped Victoria’s Secret a few years ago on the advice of this board!
Mackage coats. Stylish, beautiful and warm. I look forward to breaking mine out every December. Classic designer items. This includes my Burberry trench, Chanel classic flap, etc. They are great additions to my wardrobe and have lasted way longer than cheaper alternatives. |
Top Michelin star rated restaurants. |
Yes!!! I received these as part of a care package when recovering from surgery and could not believe how good they were. |
Wusthof knife set. I cook a lot, for a big family. |
I love chocolate chip cookies and Wegmans, but these cookies have a bad aftertaste. |
Title Nine dresses - Title Nine clothing can be pricey (for my budget) but it's SO comfortable and well made and flattering. That's my splurge.
San Marzano tomatoes - the best canned tomatoes for marinara sauce and chili. Worth the extra $2 you'd pay per can. Real pecorino romano and parmigiano reggiano cheese |
Whole Foods salad bar and chicken nuggets. |
Worth it:
cleaning service Le Creuset and All Clad cookware Tofu press shredding/grating your own cheese from actual cheese blocks farmer's market produce Not worth it: Any experience marketed as a "must see/must do" and has endless crowds. As it turns out, I generally dislike any activity involving crowds. |
Dyson hair dryer for my long curly hair.
|
I don't think it's necessarily "expensive" but we started buying Fast Passes every time we go to an amusement park and I'm not sure how we managed before that. I don't really care what the cost is because it saves literal hours. |
Botox
A car I love driving, bc I’m basically a chauffeur The best therapists we can find for speech and OT for my kid Latisse Good seats at concerts |
Cleaning service
|
You mean as a waste, I assume. |
Worth it:
A pair of properly fitted running shoes Le Creuset dutch oven Wusthoff knives For cat owners, a litter robot For parents, Kyte sleep sacks and high end strollers like Cybex or Uppa Baby |
