[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WHat i consider splurges: things I don't reasonably need but adds lasting comfort to my life. A lot of it end up being services and experience:

- more cleaning lady time. If i were in a higher income bracket (current HHI 200)k I guess it would be the help of an interior designer.
- more baby sitting
- more dermatology/skin care
- orthodontics (I did splurge this year and I am so happy with my new smile)
- more international travel, not luxury type but discovering completely different cities/countries ( I do splurge once every 2 years)
- nice restaurant for date night with DH

Things some people probably consider splurges but i consider that i need it:
- I buy organic food especially for the kids (but to balance that we don't eat out often)
- I buy few clothes but I buy quality ones : not luxury brands but focus on quality fabrics. Leather, wool, soft cotton, no plastic shoes etc.. 
- in general i buy very few things and like an empty one, but when i buy a material item I look for durability (for environmental reasons too, don't want to contribute too much to the pile of plastics)
