What do you do to allow yourself a treat?
I had posted about how proud I am that I paid off a credit card. There's a couple more to go, but I feel like I had learned a lesson. Also, it renewed my focus to get out of debt entirely. I wrote out a budget, I'm getting on top of my finances.
There's a concert in a couple weeks that I want to attend. Korpiklaani, for those curious. It kills me that I won't go so I can get that much closer to being debt-free. I was 'woe is me' to a friend who suggested I give myself a goal. If I reach that goal (make $200 extra), I can buy a ticket and go to the show.
I'm still figuring out how to sensibly budget. This sounds like a good idea to me, so I'll try it. Fingers crossed I get there. Do you do anything like that? When you see something that's an 'extra' but you really really want?
