Treat Yourself to a Simple Luxury

Published by sanerdudette at 10:34 am under Lifestyles Edit This

In these very lean financial times, take the opportunity this holiday season to treat yourself to a simple luxury.  I’m advocating a sensible choice rather than an irresponsible or over the top choice.  You will feel better and your wallet won’t suffer too much.

 

            Simple luxuries are everywhere:

 

            Latte at Starbucks -  I feel guilty paying more than a buck for a cup of coffee, but regular old coffee doesn’t come with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

 

            Ride the bus or subway – It’s cold and nasty out.  Give your feet a break and hop on mass transit.

 

            Buy a Lottery Ticket - All it takes is a dollar and a dream.  It may pay off!!

 

            Take Yourself to the Movies. – Escape the boredom of Blockbuster and check out the latest first run movie.  For maximum pleasure, do this in the middle of the afternoon.

 

            I’ll be back with more satisfying diversions soon.
