Re: If you were given a $1000 and could only use it on yourself…….

If the pandemic taught us anything, it was "be prepared."  I have always kept a six-12 month supply of household goods on hand:  detergent, cleansers, bathroom tissue, etc.  Plus, my freezer is fully stocked at all times.  Pre-pay services if possible.  Then hold on to whatever money remains.

Little makeup, an outfit, a visit to Michael's and Hobby Lobby.  and a year's donation to one or two more places I want to donate to.  Now if the $$$ were more, the answer would be different.

Travel savings. I have some trips planned in my head.

I'm not understanding the question....  Do you never have $1000 to spend?

Only on myself? Hmm!  Might consider a new pair of ice skates. However, the way they are now made, not sure if I could skate in them. Now they have so much support in them, my feet feel like they are in a formed concrete block, no give in them, and I have tried on several. At this point in my life that would probably have me falling more. With my present injuries, not sure that would be wise.

 

Anything else? Can't think of any.

@GenXmuse, she understands. It's just way of belittling. Par for the course.

Travel, most likely to New Orleans. I went there many years ago and loved it. Would go back if I could.
