Splurge

Soooo my countdown to see Jared was 32 days from today. And its already been about 3 weeks since I've seen him last. And Alaska Airline's plane tickets are lowest they've been in a while! Just booked him a round trip ticket for Friday November 8th through Monday November 11th for $197.08! Woo! New countdown: 17 days!

Oh and the other splurge? I'm going to visit Jared during part of my Thanksgiving break Saturday November 23rd through Thursday November 28th. Since Jared has a roommate (who is always around and loud), I've been looking through Groupon for some sort of weekend getaway for the first weekend I'm up. I found a group for $75 a night for a Spa King Suite. The description? "This intimately luxurious guest room is furnished with one premium king-sized bed. There is a two-person jetted tub adjacent to the bed, facing a gas fireplace and mantle-mounted television". Woo! Spa in the room next to a fire place! I'll try to add a picture. Two nights, complimentary deluxe breakfast came down to $166.05 total.  


Here's the link of some of the pictures. Our room is the 4th picture in. Jared didn't want to spend a lot for a weekend getaway, so although we could've found nicer bed and breakfast places, this one has great reviews on tripadviser AND doesn't break the bank :)

You guys splurge on anything lately?

Re: Splurge

  • That's awesome. Yes, I just splurged on new Uggs yesterday ($99 on Ebay, new in box) and today new Dansko shoes for work ($70 on Zulily). We are also splurging on our trip to Park City in January. I feel very guilty after I spend money that I shouldn't spend but I try to justify it by telling myself that I deserve it because I'm working hard at both of my jobs and it's also hard leaving my baby, but I'm hanging in there.

    Married the love of my life on 1-21-12. Our princess arrived on 5-28-13.

  • I"m trying to splurge on some new clothes. I need them badly. Hopefully in a few weeks I can get some. = )

  • No. :(  We are also trying to save money.  We will probably splurge in Vegas in January.  But I am feeling urge to spend money!
  • The past two months I've spent around $140 each month for gas and groceries. And that's it :) I've been really good. Jared, on the other hand...haha. His roommate is being really obnoxious and unpredictable which makes Jared want to be out of the apartment more often. Which means he's been getting more Starbucks or going out to dinner with coworkers. But Jared said he "wouldn't eat for a month" and put that money towards a flight to visit haha.

  • This is why I love to shop second hand!  I never feel guilty buying new clothes.
  • Your hotel room sounds AMAZING!!! Can I come too? Lol! I'm a little jealous, I'm not gonna lie.

    Does spending $88 on clothes, toys, and books for Abby count as splurging? If so, yes.

  • I would say no, that is not a splurge Megan.

  • I want all spa treatments too!  And a TV too!  We are hoping to find a good deal on a TV on Black Friday.
  • We found a great deal on a tv at a department store that was getting rid of their electronics department. It was originially a 1500 dollar tv and we got it for 795.
