Which guilty pleasures do u spend $$ on?

Hi All,

For me it's lotto, poker machines and hotel stays.

Ive been lucky and won small sums of money which entice me to go back for more. I've been one number short of a first division lotto win twice. I've also won the venues $1000 win while playing a pokie.

I like change which is the reason for my hotel stays. I usually stay for one or two nights to explore a new area.

What are your guilty pleasures?

Hi Monkey_Magic

I like your idea of staying for two nights to explore a new area.

Unfortunately my guilty pleasure is probably over doing the transition from morning to afternoon readyness. A lot of people just wake up on a Saturday morning have breakfast and shower and head out for the day. I unfortunately like to wake up - not move for about 5mins, stay in bed watching some Youtube for 20 - 30 mins.... AND THEN go and grab breakfast haha. I'm definitely not a morning person.

Dear MM

Chocolate deserts (I'm on a diet), buying more on-line books and DVDs than I should, and worst of all not picking up the phone if I don't want to talk then feeling peace afterwards and being glad abut it.

Pretty ordinary stuff I'm afraid

Hi Monkeymagic

My guilty pleasures are buying more things for my very eclectic house. My latest purchase was a toucan bird feather. Ive never owned a credit card so thats a good thing.

Ps croix anything chocolate is seemed as essential medicine in my eyes😀

Hello,

Its been a pleasure to read about everyone's guilty pleasures. Staying in bed that bit longer is one of my guilty pleasures as well.

Croix I'm assuming they are diet choc desserts then. A good way trick the brain into believing you're eating something naughty.

Helium i bet your eclectic house looks wonderful!

Monkey thanks for this thread.

While I feel guilty about many things I really wonder if I feel guilty about spending money on.

One pleasure but does not cost money(apart from having a TV) is to watch an English TV show about crime in villages or spending time on FB when I should be doing other things and like looking at catalogues , online and offline or staying bed typing on my ipad.

Hey MM

I love the term guilty pleasures....and totally agree with Croix..chocolate deserts are the bomb! My all time favorite is chocolate self saucing pudding...low fat of course..lol

But for me it is to go to the local shopping centre and spend about $50 on a head, neck and shoulder massage...it takes me to another place and I can totally zone out and get rid of the days stuff...if I had my way I would have one everyday!

Great to chat to you all

Hi all;

Full fat guilty choc deserts it is then 🙂 I'm currently eating Nutella out of the jar.

Hi Paul, got to love those specials.

Crime shows is one of my guilty pleasures also. I also love new recruit and swat- cops catching the baddies. Facebook-yep i still use it as well. My mum and granny have their faces in catelogues.

Hhmmm..massages. Last one I had was from a massage chair. But those human massages are ah-mazing....u can feel so floaty and loose afterwards 🙂

I love buying my son duplo building sets, so much so that he now has a huuuugggee tub full! They are so much fun to play with though!

I also love shopping and looking at everything, it helps with my anxiety. My husband has put me on a budget now though 😆

and chocolate of course!

After a big day in the office (I mean hectic), I disconnect with Reflexology while listening to the "most relaxing music ever" (search on youtube) and float away.

A tub of ice-cream also!
