And you had to spend it on something fun/enjoyable/splurge (no savings, no debt, payoff, etc)
I'd budget for date nights with hubby, gym membership, a maid, and some kind of fun activity for LO.
-
A maid and a new car!
-
Monthly weekend roadtrip
-
Does house renovations count?
-
Personal training
$100 of it to clothing for DH and I
a weekly activity/class for J - like a music or sports class -
I would totally join a gym + get a nanny to watch LO while I went there so I wouldn't have to worry about scheduling around naps
-
Someone to clean my house! Regular dinner and movie dates. Membership to my favourite yoga studio.
-
Maid, food delivery service, lawn service.
-
A monthly membership to a yoga studio, food delivery service, and a cleaning service.
-
Bikram yoga, date nights!
-
House cleaning, gym membership, dinners out. And I'd probably shop at the 'fancy' grocery store.
-
Cleaning lady
Dinners out/Babysitter
Yoga class -
I'd pay for my mom to fly here every month.
-
Golly... if it had to be "fun" and not "needs"... can I purchase sleep?
-
Lawn service and trainer to come to my house
-
a cleaning service, a monthly pedi, a car detail & i'd start having my hair colored at a salon again instead of doing it myself
-
Cleaning, monthly massage, healthy meals delivery, my hair done...probably out of the $500 now, huh?
-
Upgrades to the house...so much to do.
-
Gym membership, house cleaning service & travel
-
@Greentea: No... but you can hire a night nurse/nanny to wake with your LO a few times/month haha
I'd get twice monthly made service (=$250), twice monthly date night (= $200), and an extra monthly trip to target for fun non-necessities (= $50).
-
Home furnishings!!!
-
Maid/ cleaning lady all the way. Weekly! It would be amazing!
If there was anything left over, date nights, but it would have to cover a babysitter and our dinner. Mostly I just want someone to clean that isn't me.
-
A maid, some new furniture, and towards a new car.
-
a maid 2x a month and the rest towards meal delivery.
-
Furniture
-
New car
-
Cleaning lady and a new car.
-
Maid once a month and a meal service!
-
I would put it straight into home projects every month - we have a lot to do! New tile for bathroom floor, new baseboards/trim, paint, etc. $500 allocated to our home would go along way to fixing it up the way we'd love it to be!
-
I can't save any?!?!
Kindermusik classes for Vivi, and then I'd use it to cover expenses so DH could take one weekday off (like, every Tuesday) and watch Vi so that I could take some classes. He and I would both love that.
-
Oh, I'd do a membership at a Barre studio for myself and for my son, I'd extend his camp day.
-
Home decor and more meals out.
-
A new car and whatever was left would go to either Target or DH and I for clothing and fun.
-
more meals out and more fun stuff to go out and do.
-
House Cleaner, lawn maintenance, personal trainer who comes to my house!
-
House cleaner, weekly spray tans, and fun money to spend on clothes
-
A cleaning lady, a clothes allowance, and a nice haircut/dye every month!
-
if it HAD to be something fun/ extravagant (not go towards paying off debt, or savings, or home improvements) I'd say: cleaning service and personal trainer!
-
Fun money?! How exciting!!
Maid, for sure. I would get my hair done monthly. Update my wardrobe by one quality piece each month. Gym membership.
That's probably eating up my $500 already! -
House cleaner, would get my hair done, buy some new clothes, and go on date nights.
