Fancy coffee to brew at home.
Really good cocoa bars - the 90% cocoa kind. Dark chocolate.. we eat it 1 square at a time!
Books.
A really good haircut about every 2 months.
Weird, maybe... but rice just doesn't taste right the day after being cooked. So, I spend a little more money and get the small cups of brown rice to cook at work for my meal.
And I also purchase locally roasted and ground coffee. In fact, I drive by the place that makes it when I go to the store
Art supplies. I do mixed media work and sell some of it on the side for fun, but I can't seem to resist trips to the art supply store or Michael's....then I see cool new products that I want to try. I figure that if I at least sell as much as I spend, I can justify it. It would be nice to actually turn a profit though, lol.
We also have season tickets to our local University's football games. College football is a huge thing in this area--our family's social life revolves around it in the fall. My husband and kids are HUGE fans. Do we need them? No. It's one of those wants that we allow ourselves because we're disciplined about saving, and we're at a point in our life where we can afford them.
Carbonated water, of all things I drink it to keep myself from drinking sweet tea all day. But for a bottle of carbonated water it's 79 cents, 69 cents on sale. I get as much as I can when it's on sale, but either way it adds up since I go though almost a bottle a day.
my biggest are these one --books --dvd movies and tv shows--diet pepsi--high end peanut butter --diff flavored sugars for the tea ..plus my trips to the local air rifle match for the international 10 meter rifle shooting ..
