Treat Yourself Once In A While When was the last time you treat yourself for a job well done? Was it yesterday? Last week? Or a few months ago? Don't tell me, it was last year? I hope not, though. So what did you buy for yourself, or did you take a weekend getaway with some friends after a very stressful week? Whether you prefer to treat yourself on a fancy place with friends, or a simple me time by getting yourself pampered, it's always good to treat yourself once in a while.
Back in Cebu, I barely spend anything for myself. I was more on saving and spending only for the necessary things. If there would be a chance to spend some money on something, that would be either for my furbabies' needs or my nieces' and nephews' requests. But gone are the days when everything was just about them. Now, I'm starting to enjoy my fruit of labor by buying stuff that I want and need. Some people may think I overspent quite a lot, but if it's something that I need, then why not! So yes to treating something for myself now and no more guilty feeling after seeing the price for each parcel. Skincare

It's not that I want to look beautiful coz I'm fine by just looking adorable. LOL. But I don't want to go back to how I used to 3 months to 6 months ago when acne has invaded my face. I don't want to go back to those days when seeing my own face scares me to death. Okay, that's exaggerating but seriously, having so much acne is not fun at all. Back massager If you've been a noise follower, you would have read my posts about me complaining a lot about my back pain. Well, I've been suffering from this for several years now due to working long hours on the computer. Thankfully, a friend showed me his back massager and advised me to get one for myself too. So yes, after a few days from our convo, I added a back massager to my cart.

Now, I don't have to contact the person who would do a home-service massage and pay her cash. I could just simply take my back massager, plugin, and voila! Enjoying the moment while that thing is doing what it is supposed to do at my back. One of the best investments so far. Gaming chair Oh yeah! This one is probably the most pricey that I purchased online. I was reluctant at first coz I was worried I might receive a total damaged chair. Gladly, the chair is in good condition and, though, it has a little bit of defect, I'm still happy with my purchase.

I love it and am so proud that I got the courage to order this after 2 years of procrastination. I can now lean my back or head or rest my arms whenever I want to. Overall, I am a satisfied and happy buyer here.
*Closing thoughts* I am so happy that I get to spend some cash for myself now. This gives me more reason to work hard to get what I want. As always, I try to be responsible by making sure that what I'm going to spend is for needs and not just some random wants. Items that will improve my productivity and give comfort are two of my top priority. My next plan is to buy a small TV screen and put it in my room, so I could work and watch Netflix at the same time. Working at night alone is pretty boring, so my next project is to save for my personal TV. Yay! So yeah, just like me, you should treat yourself too. Buy something you like. Eat the foods you crave. See the places you want to go. Meet the people you want to meet. And enjoy the fruit of your hard work. You deserve it after all. As always, be sure to save more, spend wisely.

Halaaaaa nainggit ako sa back massager. Sobrang convenient niya. Di na kinahanglan muadtog spa. Sakit pa naman kanunay akong likod. Agree gyud ko nga we need to treat ourselves sometimes for the job well done.
Lami jud nis paminaw, sis. Mura jud kag gihilot plus pwede pud nimu iset if you want na mejo okay ra ang massage or gusto kag hard. :)
Kanindot ba gyud ana sis uy. Wala na gyuy hasol mag gawas gawas para magpa massage.
Sis, if interesado ka, icheck ang link. Ako gi attached dihaa. Lami jud siya sis ui.
i can't spend that much for myself right now. there are things more important than what i want to have or what i need now. maybe a few more years....then i can treat myself with something i really really need or want.
I can relate. It took me at this age to enjoy my fruit of labor. Back then, I was also focused on my priorities coz I don't have enough money. I'm not saying I have a lot now, but my expenses are quite less compared to before.
Seeing your face makes me happy, I am always attracted to beautiful people but yours is different. I am becoming an addict to seeing your beautiful smile. Spoiling oneself sometimes makes lots of sense because it is great to eat from one effort. As a matter of fact, it inspires you achieve more success.
Indeed, it does! Gives you fuel to strive more because the purpose is not just about saving. ☺ And thank you. Just so you know that's a filtered one. Anything filtered is oozing with extra cuteness. Lol. Meaning that's fake.
You will never at it and that's becoming a normal thing to me. My eyes can't play tricks on my head.
Wow sis! Congrats! You make me smile. I felt that you're really happy now..🥰 Yung back massager sis at yung chair, gusto ko din..❤️ sumasakit likod ko minsan kailangan na magpamasahe..
Yes, sis. Sobrang nakaka happy talaga kasi 2 years ko ding pangarap to. Hahaha. I mean this chair and finally, meron na ako. 🥰🥰
Happy ako sayo sis.. 🥰🥰Dami mo ng achievement sis.. I know mabili mo na din soon yung tv sis..🙏
You deserve some treat Sis because of your handwork. When I was still single, I often treat myself for clothes, food, travel with friends etc. But it really stopped when I got my kids, I focused more on them now. But now I realized after reading your article, that I should also treat myself once in a while for it is never easy to be a family provider, although my husband assisted me but I often do our monthly budget. I will start treating myself even in simple ways like buying clothes and treatment for my acne too, I have also lots of them hehe good thing Sis yours are fully gone. I think treating myself in these simple ways is not too much hehe... Thanks for this idea Sis that once in a while I need to give myself a little reward for my stressful days.
Sis, if you have acne problem, check out my article here. Not sure if you've seen that one. Title: Best Skincare I've Tried So Far And, yes, sis. You deserve a little reward for yourself. You need to pamper yourself too. Clothes would be nice. After all, it's never easy to raise kids 24/7. Kaya wag ka maghinayang. You deserve it. 💚
Congratulations! I treated myself with kfc california maki meal haha. Took me à while to finally do that. Sometimes we do have to reward ourselves.
Lucky you. Unfortunately, we are far away from the city so even if I have the means to buy, I still can't. I miss eating Jollibee or KFC. 🤤🤤
You are one fine woman, MJ. That gaming chair was designed for you 😍🥰🥰. I try to treat myself once in a while. I sometimes just close my eyes and say, 'ditch this, I am going to go all in'. It's a good motivation to desire achieving more results. I am glad you treated yourself well. I would love that back massager too.
This back massager is perfect for us, especially those who suffer back pain a lot. You should get one too.
Beautiful! That's how I can qualify everything you have done for yourself. I see a beautiful heart in heart in you, and I pray God bless your heart desires.
Aw, thank you so much, Fexonice. 💚 I pray the same for you too.
It's always good to treat yourself and take yourself out to have fun. I can see you are enjoying your chair and it looks comfortable. I always plan to take myself out once in a month and I am waiting for the end of this month to do that.
Aww. I'd love that too. Maybe one day, I can.
I never treat myself when I have money,I always prioritize my family but I've realized we need to do this for sometime to ourself encouragement to do better.
Yes, you should. We deserve it, anyway. We deserve to get what we want too. After all, it's our money. For once, think about yourself and don't feel guilty about it.
Omg!!! I just want that back massager. Ufff.... It will reduce my pain. Loved the way you explained it to us. Oh dear, can't get off my eyes from that back massager 😁
Haha. Now, check your local online shop and add that one to cart. You will love it.
Oh my Gwad!!! Indeed you gave yourself a special treat with all the assorted things you bought for yourself, always okay to look good. Buying a skin care products for your acne serves you right,I hate it when I have acne on my face, it's suck! When you have a flawless skin you'll feel got and comfortable.... The chair too, wish it's mine...lol, it will be so good for a good relaxation, you got good thing for yourself, enjoy it.
Thank you. Yes, the chair is very comfy. Love how big it is. And you're right about skincare. If you have an acne problem, you start feeling unhappy about yourself. I was like that but glad no more simple for me. Not even a bit.
Yeah, your skin your pride, I can spend anything on myself just to look good... hehehehe
You are really taking good care of yourself now sis and I can see that from the short video I wish to do that soon when I start earn big like you
Don't worry, sis. You will eventually. And once you get there, you deserve to buy something for yourself.
Sure I will because I love taking care of myself first
Chair look great and comfy! You are right, treating ourselves every now and again is important. What would be the point of earning money if we don’t spend it on some pleasures? Enjoy 💙
Exactly! Actually, I used to focus on saving and having more in my account. Now, I want to spend a little portion to that for myself but, of course, only spend on the important ones.
Hehe, you earned that chair❤ its nt easy but when you are done its always good to treat yourself✌
Thank you. And you're right, it really feels good to treat one's self.
I use to treat myself before, but i don't know why? starting i become a mom, and of course no work for awhile. All the money that i have in my pocket are all save for my son.😅😅kapag cguro may work na ulit ako,etetreat ko ulit sarili ko.. thanks for the reminder pretty..
i am sure you are enjoying that chair right now...congrats!
I really love that gif of you sitting on your new gaming chair 😁 so so pretty.. 🙂
Ang ganda nyo po ate, you deserve to pamper yourself after working hard. Congratulations on your new gaming chair hihi :))
When was the last time I treat myself for doing a good job nga ba? I think yung binili ko tong fon ko na to, oppo f5, that was 4 years ago😂. Ganda nun back massager sis..
I actually treat myself often. I am not afraid to admit I have money. But part of the reason I do is because I am frugal. I save like there is no tomorrow. I make thousands of dollars per year in dividends, and collecting premiums from covered calls in the stock market. But I DO treat myself when I want to. One HAS to. There is no reason to HAVE money or make money if one cannot enjoy it. Granted, it is all very calculated. I track the dollars very closely. I know exactly WHEN I can take some for myself, and when I do and can, I reward myself handsomely. The best part? Because of the way I do it, taking something for myself RARELY impacts the bottom line. No matter how I much I take now, I always have more later. It just works that way for me because of the way I do it. And I love every minute of it.
Akin naman po yung cellphone yung treat ko for my BCH earnings. However, may inggit na inggit rito kasi di lang pinautang ng 3k tapos di ako naniniwala na babayaran linggo-linggo. Nakakainis lang kasi yung di ko pinabayarang utang, pinapalipas ko lang tapos ngayon na ayaw kong mangutang, nagrereklamo. Inggitero amp HAHAHHAHAHAHAH
Yes it is not bad to treat yourself. But for me you can only treat yourself according to what you only have. The needs is more important than our wants but if you can buy that that stuff because you have extra money, why not you can?
Same sa back pain po talaga. Di na masyado dahil di pa po ako napasok sa work, pero pag balik ko nyan for sure, sasakit na naman. Ang hirap, kasi nakakaapekto talaga sa normal na gawain. Masakit talaga. Gusto ko din mag invest for myself nyang back massager. More on tipid muna ako para maging deserving ako nyan. You go lang po! Treat yourself! It's a money you earn, you worked for, so you don' t have to be guilty. Love your glossy, and white skin!
I think I treat myself every day hahaha.. I find comfort with food. So, after a very ring day at work, I will not deprive myself if it craves something hahaha... There's also a time when I treated myself by treating my mom to a salon. My happiness is she's satisfied with the little things I give to her. For me, making my family happy is a big treat for myself :)
Yes tama po, minsan treat ourself, ako sa wakas nakabili din hehe, tho its just a lotion but still its for myself hehe
Yayy, tama naman yan. Pinag hirapan naman natin yung ginastos natin diba. So spending some for ourselves is not that bad. Minsan lang naman ee. Ako nga din nagpa budol sa 9.9, Minsan ko lamg pah bigyan ang sarili ko kaya ayon hehehehe
Nindot lagi tung back massager sis. Angay jud na sa sige ug sakit ang likod. Dili na need magpahilot.hihi Ako, last time nga I treat myself was last week.😁 I bought a skin care for me. Medyo haggardo versoza na kasi aketch. Maayo unta ug muangay pud ko sa akong gipalit.hihi
Congratulations on your birthday gift for yourself, you look so pretty in there 😍
