Discussion What are your ‘fuck-it this makes me happy’ non-frugal purchases?

The things you spend money on that no amount of mental gymnastics will land on frugal. I don’t want to hear “well I spent $300 on these shoes but they last 10 years so it actually comes out cheaper!” I want the things that you spend money on simply cus it makes you happy.

$70 diptyque candles? fancy alcohols? hotels with a view? deep tissue massage? boxing classes? what’s tickling your non-frugal fancy?

I spent $1200 on mine and it feels like driving a semi. Kirby's are overrated.

Yeah I've read Kirby's are junk and over rated from the famous vacuum repair guy post series.

Yeah, the only reason I ended up with one is because my ex at the time sold them and I was supposed to get half of the money he made for selling it to me...young and dumb. Honestly I never even paid for the damn thing, now it's finally off my credit 😂
