Quoting RunsWithScissors:" I got tons of gift cards for Xmas... I bought groceries, dd and dh some stuff and me a $5 phone case... ... [snip!] ... I shouldn't have bought groceries or the toys/movies for them with my money *shrugs* I get more joy out of buying for others"
I am the SAME way. I got money to buy myself new clothes & I ended up buying DD toy's and clothes haha.

Quoting IDID-VBAC 12/09:" People dont give me gift cards to places I can buy something for the kids at anymore   lol. It is usually a VS gift card otherwise they know I will spend it on the kids. "

Nope.. I work a stressful full time job & I work damn hard for the money I make. I spend it on myself just as much as I spend it on my LO. I think I deserve it

Nope unless its needed.

I spent on myself pretty much every day, from clothes to shoes makeup whatever. But if my kids needed new coats I obviously would before myself no questions asked. Lol

But I also shop for my kids every day as well so its pretty even. Lol

I spend way too much on myself. I'm selfish like that, but its not like the kids are lacking in anything *shrug*

My therapist says I do. He's forever yelling at me for not thinking of myself. I enjoy the different opinion though, gives me something to think about. I still think I'm right though, lol

I used to spend more on DS but we were in a tighter spot financially. Now DH makes enough that I don't even have to worry about it. I have a certain amount I spend in DS every paycheck and a certain amount I use for just ME! Well sometimes I use it to surprise DH or on my little sister, or mom. But I also have a certain amount I get to spend on others. DH and I agreed that we would take as much as we spend on ourselves and do random nice things for others. Like paying for ppls groceries, gas or giving our waiters/waitresses a minimum of $100 tip whenever we go out to dinner no matter how small amount out check is. I could never just spend our money on only me. Not when there are so many who don't have it as comfortable as we do.

That's nice though  

Maybe I just like having new things.... Whether it's for myself or LO. I just like to spend money, hahaha.
