I know perfectly well that money doesn't grow on trees but, to be honest, I am not brilliant at saving. I have recently made good progress in this area, though. So, when I can, I spend my money on various...objects of desire. Here are a few:
1. Perfumes to either use or add to my perfume collection
Angel by Thierry Mugler is one of my most favourite perfumes
2. Original Louis Vuitton handbags and other accessories.
3. Shoes, boots, sandals, trainers, slippers ...all sorts of footwear
4. DVDs which I usually purchase at amazon.com at very reasonable prices.
5. Cadbury Drinking Chocolate for cold, winter nights...and chocolate in general.
6. Being a bookworm, I can't resist buying books.
7. Clothes, of course.
8. French champagne on special occations - preferably Dom Perignon.
9. Perfumed candles
10. Gym equipment for some toning when I can't go to the gym.
The truth is that sometimes I do feel guilty about spending money on "trivialities." The pleasure,though, soon outweighs the guilt But I'll say more about it some other time.
Now here you go! What do you usually spend your money on?
make-up, cosmetics and clothes. i love your shoes, by the way!!!

When I pay the bills, if I have any extra money left, I'll spend it on books and chinaware.

Being an economist, I can manage my personal budget fairly well always taking care not to spend more than what I earn. When I can afford it, I like investing in fishing equipment. I recently purchased a small fishing boat I got at a very good price.

Your shoes and dress are gorgeous, Anastasia. You must tell me where you got them from! I spend most of my money on groceries and instalments to pay off my new car.

I'm not really a big spender and, considering the financial crisis, I make sure I save up a part of my salary. But, from time to time, I love shopping around for clothes, accessories, dvds , it depends on the mood! -:)

Well, most of the time I have no money....hehehe! But if I do have money, I save it for big projects (like a property) or buy make-up/skincare or shoes. Or sometimes send the money to my folks in the Phils. (they need the money more than I do).
I think we have the same "obsession" ---perfume, bags, shoes and clothes, but I can only buy them occasionally.
