For me, it's a designer handbag. There is NOTHING as great to me, as a perfect high-end purse. I don't like cheap purses. I always buy great purses. :D

Well...I am not into any 1 expensive item I like a lot of inexpensive stuff...if that makes any sense. I can go to Target's clerance sections and come out $200 in the whole and 5 or 6 new outfits as opposed to going to Fashion Square and hitting up Lucky Jeans and spending $200 on 1 pair of jeans....

I can't really do that now because I am not working and we do not have a lot of extra to splurge on things, but when I did have more I would splurge on shoes. I love shoes!

All of those things, except jewelry, are things I always buy on sale. Jewelry is my weakness.

We don't have a ton of money to splurg on many things. I am not a big shopper anyway. Lately I have found comfort in retail theropy when I'm really upset and frustrated, but Even then, I only buy when stuff is on sale. If I was rich, though, I would be splurging on stuff for my home. IE. new furniture, paintings, appliances...etc.

I tragically splurge on everything. Coats, purses, shoes, clothes, accesories, makeup, whatever. I redo my entire closet every fall and spring. Goodwill makes out like a thief when I pull up. I try to watch what I spend and thus far, have never had my American Express revoked. So I think I do a good job. But I refuse to pick because it would be like trying to decide which of your children you like better.

I am like Amber...so I don't really splurge on any one item...I am a sale and clearance shopper. Honestly, I don't even shop at stores that sell high-end items...I know that I cannot afford them or even when I can, I know that I would never spend that kinda money on them....so I just stay away!!!

It has been a long long itme since I splurged on myself for anything. I always put msyelf last and try to fidn thigns my kids would love. I think it is more because I didnt have alot as a child, I didnt go without by any emans. I had a good life. But there is so much my kids would love to do and see and have that i make sure I am able to provide them with these things. Like a special toy or going to the zoo or a fair or a carnival. My kids are not spoiled. They do appreceaite every thing they have or get to do. They know how to window shop as well as I do. So needless to say I dont remember the last time I bought myself anything.

Cosmetics for me, esp. perfume. Designer perfume just cannot be matched in my opinion, but I try very hard to buy it only in a gift set or when they are offering a gift with purchase. Not to mention a small bottle lasts me about a year anyways.
Lacey- You are the type of person that makes Goodwill shopping worth it! Thanks!
I have found some of the best things in Goodwill for basically pennies. Although I have very little motivation to go shopping and especially at Goodwill b/c you never know if they will even have anything nice in your size.

Oh I totally agree with that one, I won't wear anything but Lancome and Estee Lauder "Beyond Paradise" is my perfume! I work in television and have to doll up every day....my makeup last for hours and even the on air talent ask me how I do it! Simple, buy the good stuff!
