I don't collect Social Security but I do think you ladies should treat yourselves with that extra money.  You deserve it.

For those who receive it, I'm sure the increasingly higher priced grocery store will enjoy you "treating yourself", assuming, of course, you can find anything to buy...

@Mustang Shar   Oh hey girl-go with a Mustang Shelby.  It would fit your name better.   LOL

 

And if you go vintage 1967 you can pay up to $200,000 depending upon condition.

 

Now THAT would be living only once!!!

@SharkE   We are looking to replace ours since the lumbar support is getting worn out now.  We want leather this time, too.

 

May I ask where you bought yours?

You'd better save it to cover all the price increases that America's business leaders have planned for us this year.

I plan on getting my first pedicure next month.  I can no longer do a full pedi on one foot myself so off I go to be pampered.

Bob Mills, I'm in Amarillo, Tx and that store is the biggest he advertises on TV. They won't sell floor models, he had to order it in from Lubbock about 100  miles away, still in box. When husband was alive he would never allow getting anything 'power' stuck with the manual handle, I just have to worry about pleasing myself now in my old age  (LOL) so, I'm gonna live a little. also, comes in grey. Loveseat recliner not big ol' couch

still 80 inches wide though. Has USB port in the deep storage bin so I can plug up the Apple instead of leaving it on the floor charging.

Had nothing to do with SS increase ROFL I was just wanting to show it off. LOL

It's not a raise, it's the cost of inflation & it doesn't even cover all of it so no I'm not treating myself, I'm cutting my budget....again.


@kitcat51 I agree with you!  Those actually getting a raise out of it are fortunate.

 

And nursing home bills went up hundreds--so for those paying that, what a mess.
