[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. Food. DH and I sometimes will splurge for the 3-star Michelin ultra fancy tasting menu experience. Maybe once a year. Some people are into spending hundreds on concert/show tickets, but for us, we'd rather spend hundreds on a multi-course meal that is exquisitely prepared and nearly brings me to tears at how good a bite tastes.

2. Travel. You only live once. We are careful with this though, we stack all purchases that we can on our Chase Sapphire cards to accrue points. We've been to Europe 3 times with flights completely covered by Chase points (just pay taxes), sometimes with a little extra for part of the lodging. We are flexible in where we go and will just go with flight deals to pick where we travel to. Usually the lodging is out of pocket. But this way, instead of a one week stay 2 hours away at a beach, we can be at a beach in Italy for not that much more $$.

I lived in NYC in my 20s and loved the fine dining scene. I generally didn’t do 3 stars but have been to plenty of 1-2 star restaurants. I’m not sure I care to spend my money that way now and it’s hard to get away for date nights with kids but glad I was able to experience that.[/quote]
