1) $5 worth of scratch tickets--I don't really care to ever be rich and I would be embarrassed if I won but they provide me with a sense of excitement and thrill.
2) Taco Johns- 6 pack and a pound....long 12 hour study days get my appetite as good as it ever is and I crave Taco Johns 6 pack and pound. This is almost ALWAYS two meals but I have been known to knock it out in one setting.
3) 2-Liter of Pepsi Max. I rarely buy soda because it is expensive and non-purposeful but in tiring times, knowing that I have a 2-liter of pepsi Max at home waiting for me always gets me pumped up and I find it encouraging.
4) Take 5 candy bar--No real explanation needed, they are just the bomb.
5) Sugar free red bull--I think this was mostly a work thing because I never crave it or want it when I am not at work but I do, fork over the $2.62 for a sugar free red bull every shift...which is bad for the budget but when we are talking about "guilty pleasures," budgets are ultimately ignored.
6) Dahls cafe breakfast, more specifically a giant waffle from Dahls cafe. I used to be a loyal Saturday customer at Dahls because I always had a coupon for $2 off any regular price item...courtesy of of the value books. I loved the nice elderly people and always learned something by sitting and eating breakfast with them...very refreshing.
7) Buying wii games....I love buying, or just getting, new wii games or any games really but sometimes, my conscious breaks down and I choose not to wait for a birthday or Christmas and go buy it STAT.
8) Tan..I know this will surprise some of you but yes, I do spend 12 minutes in a tanning bed twice a month between Nov-April. I believe in "winter blues" and I am certainly not immune. I am an outdoor junkie and I HATE being cold. Tanning helps me during the winter.
9) McDonalds 2 for $1 apple pies. Nothing fancy but I just do love them!
10) backpacks....I am getting better but I am a sucker for, what I think, are "sweet backpacks" and I have several! I do try to rotate them all but I am partial to a few of my favorites...
There you go...ak's guilty pleasures...what are yours?
In no particular order...
ReplyDelete-Srirachi or Tobasco sauce on almost everything
-Moped riding (refuse to sell it even though I don't have much use for it anymore, because those few infrequent perfect riding days make it worth it)
-Hitting the snooze button for as long as possible (at least I force myself to mentally prepare for what I'm going to be doing that day)
-Diet Dr. Pepper (trying to limit myself since pop is bad, but there are times when I just say no to water)
-Chinese food
-An old college fav: Sushi and Rockstar from the IMU charged to the U-bill (thanks Dad)
-Cheese
-Wine
-Spending an outrageous amount of money on my haircuts/color/products. (Doesn't mean it will be good b/c it's expensive, but when it's good, it will be expensive. It's one of those things you get what you pay for!)
-Fine Jewelry, in fairness it's usually given to me, but when I make the big bucks I'll have problems on my hands...literally.
-Purses and shoes
-Giving myself my own manis and pedis not because I'm cheap (ha!)but because I like to do it myself and take pride when they look nice.
Those are the ones I will admit online! :)
Shut the front door, tanning? Really? I'm shocked.
