With a max. $100 budget, what would you buy?
I know most people would probably do the spa thing.
I'm thinking about getting myself a tagine and tagine cookbook...or...I don't know. haha! I don't want to go buy clothes because I'm super depressed about my weight right now and was having a hard time buying a dress for a wedding next weekend that looked somewhat decent.

I just had my bday and I really wanted to buy myself the new iPhone 5s. But I didn't. Maybe in a couple months...

I would get myself a beautiful floral arrangement, a hair clip and some make up!
Flowers usually last only a week, but they make me SO happy

Probably clothes, but if not that, maybe makeup, earrings, cute lunch tote, perfume, tickets to a musical, shoes, home stuff (frames), books, etc!

I would get myself a mani/pedi, eyebrow wax & a body polish/scrub! My winter skin is grossing myself out

I bought some purses at a store that's closing next month. That's my gift to myself.

I would probably spend it on accessories- necklaces, hair things, etc. It's stuff I never buy, so I would let myself have a little fun and get a few guilt free things.

I really want a large canvas photo to hang in the living room. I told DH I want one of our newborn pictures when we get them done. Something of all 3 of us.
I already told him that that's what I wanted for my birthday in June. I'll probably forget I said that by then so it'll be a surprise all over again. I know DH will remember. Lol

I'd get some new makeup and nail polish, or a new hair dryer, or a pair of shoes, or a bunch of books, and renew my Gold membership.

A new bottle of perfume (mine's out) and then I'd use the rest to buy a new book and a gift card for guilt-free stops at the local coffee shop.

I'd probably go to Target and biy $100 worth of home decor. Actually that's what I did with the gift card my in-laws go me for my last bday

The Naked 3 Palette! I also want some Laura Mercier lip stuff (gah, i'm so pale in the winter), some pretty new underwear.....some pretty sandals for spring/summer. A pedicure. Perfume is always good, too (although I have like 3 bottles because I love to smell good!). DH is getting me something with E's birthstone in it this year...I'm a sucker for sentimental stuff!

Shoes always make me happy because they don't usually change in size like clothes. 
Maybe a pedicure to go with the new shoes. I would also maybe get some home decor stuff.

After the thread about them the other day I'd get stackable rings with my LO's initial and a heart.

@babycanuck: When is your birthday?
Would you want a membership to netflix/hulu, towards an ipad, yoga classes? One other option is to walk around your house and figure out what little things annoy you/need replacing. I just bought a new dish drainer that will sit in the sink today because the old one from DH's bachelor days annoys me so much.

@AmeliaBedilia: Sometime this month
I think I will look around the house, and maybe get myself a swim pass to start swimming lanes a few times a week. Swimsuits are out now at some stores, need to find a relatively decent one piece for that, I don't think the bikini will do.

My Bday is on the 17th and I've already booked an appointment at the salon. It's been over a year since I've even gotten a hair cut. Having a baby takes its tole on your body and I just want to get back to feeling good again. I have a hair cut, color, eyebrows, feet and hands and a massage booked. I literally cannot wait!!! A morning without baby puke accessorizing my outfit lol. DH is also taking me out for dinner just the two of us. I might even get lucky lmao

If I'm not happy with the way I look in clothes, shoes or a purse will usually do the trick! They look good no matter the size!

I'd take an afternoon for myself; buy a new book and go out to a nice restaurant for lunch and read my book. Then I would grab a bottle of new nail polish on my way home!

I'd resize a ring that my husband gave me that hasn't fit since I got pregnant.
Second choice: home goods. We need curtains and a mirror and picture frames. And by "need" I mean "I want".
