Rikki - that's a beautiful scarf, where is it from?

To the OP, I don't know if I can answer this. When we sold our house we told ourselves we could each splurge on one item. I ended up putting the money into the bank because I had a hard time spending that much for one item for myself. Some things I had considered though: diamond studs, a nice trench, or a nice leather bag.

This scarf (I almost bought it last week, I probably will get it this weekend-- the colors are so gorgeous IRL) and a bunch of Lululemon cause some of mine is getting pretty old.

That scarf is so pretty!

I'd buy a clarisonic (I plan on buying one next month anyways) Then a whole new wardrobe and some shoes.

Oooh, this is fun. I’d get a massage. Then a few new dresses and shoes. A haircut, color, treatment. Probably get my nails done since it’s been >5mo since the last. Then I’d use the rest to buy myself a second wedding ring. I like the look of bands on each side. That, or an iPad.

an ipad. i almost bought one last night, but decided it wouldn't bring enough fun to override the guilt of messing up our savings plans.

then clothes, i guess.

i'd have a hard time not spending on the house because i consider the house "mine" and i really enjoy decorating it.

The sad part of this is that I just got a bonus check. Post tax amount was about $920. I put every cent of it into our savings account so we can buy a house next year.

However, if I wasn't so boring and predictable, I would absolutely buy myself a new wardrobe. I could really use some new work clothes and workout gear. I desperately need pants for the coming winter.

ETA: Oh, and new shoes! Ugh. Now I want my bonus money back! I need winter boots.

Is a vacation considered tangible? If so, then that's what I would pick. If that doesn't count, then I would pick new shelving unit for our master bedroom closet. I want one of those closet systems.
