How do you reward yourself?

[fashionista-ta]

OK, I'm looking for ideas I believe in positive reinforcement, and I want to reward myself for reaching clutter-clearing milestones. Please tell me what works for you

Buy something expensive! I buy shoes when I've thrown a bunch of stuff in the bin. I have a lot of shoes...actually need to get rid of some of those

 

[fashionista-ta]

Did I mention it shouldn't cost too much? I was thinking of a budget in the $100 range ...

Clutter Clearing milestones deserves a massage or facial. All that hard work---may as well clear out your pores and/or rub out those exhausted muscles. Seriously, I reward myself with an hour long Thai foot massage or a facial. Just Reward for whatever I've accomplished.

I typically pick music, but that's because music is my other addiction, besides fashion. In fact I'll be getting a cd as present for getting in better shape, but I can't decide between something like LCD Soundsystem or something like Beach House, Goldfrapp's new one, The Kills, She and Him or Bob Dylan (Blonde on Blonde or another one). I typically pick whatever I'm in the mood for atm, but that's why I could pick any of these according to how I feel now.

^ I think you deserve two, if that helps

Thanks for the ideas I like the idea of a facial, that's something I never do (of course extractions are more like torture ). I need a pedicure, maybe that + something like hot stone foot treatment or something I dunno, don't usually do that either

Ahh... I make BF massage my feet, totally free! You could also get drunk, I always do that when I want to reward myself. Oh yes...the Danish youth...

that's expensive

 

[Legyviel]

^lol, I guess it depends...

Usually I go shopping. I don't buy something I need but rather something I want... And it doesn't have to be expensive, more like makeup or perfume, or a pair of shoes from zara...
Pedicure sounds nice

 

[SHSH]

On a serious note hmm id say probably go selfridges after work and buy a whole load of krispy kremes

 

[Blondes]

I think the facial/pedicure/other treatment idea is the best, since it is a reward for decluttering. Going shopping seems a bit counterproductive.

 

[Deborah]

Yeah don't buy more things. Thats just new clutter. I think the beauty treatments is a good one or maybe a nice big chocolate bar!

 

[strawberry daiquiri]

it usually involves a lot of chocolate or expensive cake

 

[Fewormany]

Going out for diner.
Cooking something special/expensive.

Visit to a museum/zoo/ect you love.

You know, I have never had a pedicure, and people tell me it is a MUST. May be that would be a great reward, especially if you usually don't do that.

it usually involves a lot of chocolate or expensive cake

I forgot about this one---chocolate cake is a great reward. The more rich and decadent, the better.
