About Carrie Rocha
…fancy-shmancy coffee drinks from Starbucks and Caribou. I’d drink them every day if I had the money.
…redecorating a room. I love buying new furniture and accessories.
It all depends…
food splurge would be REALLY good coffee,
home splurge would be new furniture, and
clothes would be a really cute pair of shoes, even if they weren’t practical. :o)
My favorite splurge is…
1. Computer stuff
2. Pet stuff (I have a kitty I love to spoil) (or at least try)
I don’t have many splurges, but the two above. Great question, Carrie.
White chocolate mocha from Starbucks is my current splurge and I try to limit it as much as I can. Getting a pedicure at a fancy place used to be a splurge before kids.
A pedicure! it lifts me up and the feeling lasts.
Ditto!
Me three!
I agree with Carrie. I love a great lunch or dinner at McCormick and Schmicks!
getting a haircut at a “real” salon!
That’s TOTALLY mine too! Now, I’m trying to figure out how to do that AND get a partial foil…
I love getting my car detailed. I consider it spring cleaning for my car.

2. Eating out
And for those that love the cold beverages from Caribou or Starbucks, I’ve recently discovered McDonalds versions. They are $3 for a medium and really good. I get one every other friday as my treat.
…Vanilla Iced Nirvana from Dunn Bros! (Or some other fancy coffee drink.) I get one no more then once a week and it’s a nice treat!

a facial
Designer handbags. I get one a year and they are worth sacrificing for!
A Coach Purse!!!!
Panera! Why doesn’t Panera have coupons?…at least that I’ve seen…

Avon. I like the mineral make up and the ANEW face creams.
Did you get in on the sale going on right now on the ANEW face creams? Buy the new Emulsion and get the day cream free, so spend 30-34 and get 60-68 worth of product free! If you didn’t it was from Campaign 16.
The Gargantuan @ Jimmy John’s…despite having tons of sandwich fixings @home because of PYD.

Walking around Barnes & Noble looking over all the new books I’d like to purchase but can’t afford. Then I request them from my local library system.
I’d say massages, but I’m lucky enough to get them free thanks to gift cards for Christmas from a day care parent. It used to be Starbucks or Caribou, but I’ve been making AWESOME iced coffee at home, dirt cheap. So, I’ll go with a mani/pedi, nothing beats a massage chair and pretty toes.
Trish do you have any of the coffee recipes you’d like to share with us? I’ve started to make my own drinks at home too!
Campfire Mocha with those delicious little marshmallows on top from Caribou! Yum! :)
a massage!

Gotta love those splurges! My little splurge is a large white chocolate mocha from Caribou or Dunn Bros, and a large splurge would be a 1-hour massage. Pure bliss!!
