Buying anything with a gasoline engine. I think I have an octane fetish.

Going out for breakfast/lunch/coffee/dinner. I live in a small but expensive town and most of the people I know work for peanuts, so to call up a friend and say 'i can't be bothered shopping, lets do lunch' feels like a real luxury.
Yesterday was a perfect example...
3pm, sunny perfect 70 degree weather. Sitting outside on the patio at a restaurant, people watching & drinking fruity drinks. Catching a mid-day buzz while all the rat-racers were still at work.
mmmmmMMM luxurious!

shopping at sephora, nordstrom, victoria's secret, lord and taylor, etc. buying ANYTHING from those stores really. it could be a pair of earrings on sale for 20 bucks, but walking around with a shopping bag from an expensive store makes me feel good.
buying expensive gifts for people. spending money on yourself is one thing, but being able to afford to spend a couple hundred on a present for another person, THAT'S living expensively.
grocery shopping always makes me feel like I'm living expensively because I'm SO young and whenever I drop $300 on groceries (I don't buy crappy food!) the cashier gives me that "DAMNNN!" look.
oh and I agree with whoever said driving haha. filling up my gas tank all the way feels luxurious! I picked up a friend one time and even she was like "holy shit I can't remember the last time I had a full tank"
paying for something super expensive with a debit card. I try to avoid doing this now because I'm so bad at math, but there's something kinda cool about going on a shopping spree and just being like "swipe swipe swipe yeah I don't care how much this costs I have enough to cover it in my bank account"





+1 on the gas thing. My little sportscar isn't a gas hog, but she drinks nothing but Shell premium, period. And dumping almost $50 into a car that small HURTS, lol.
BTW - anybody not onto this yet - a shameless plug but in a "public service" sort of way - take it from a car guy - they are NOT kidding about their nitrogen gas being superior. I ran only Chevron or other top shelf fuels before, but once I ran 3 tanks of the new Shell gas through my car on a "challenge", I got 1 more MPG average, made 4 more peak hp on the dyno, and the 2nd gear "hiccup" that all supercharged EcoTec cars have was gone, never to return. Until I wasn't near a Shell once and filled up with Chevron again. 1//2 way through the tank - hiccup was back. Ran it empty, filled with Shell again - 1/2 way though the tank it's gone again. This has happened two other times since, same result. Everyone I've turned on to this has become permanently converted to Shell after 3 tanks. And it doesn't matter if your car runs on regular or premium, the Shell gas is really that much better.
Another thing since I"m on this topic - please, if your car doesn't SAY "Premium fuel recommended (or required)", DON'T RUN PREMIUM. So many people waste money thinking it's better to run premium. If your car doesn't SPECIFY higher octane fuel, you're getting WORSE mileage and LESS POWER by running the high test stuff. I could go ito tons of technical stuff here but I'll spare you - just trust me on this, k?![]()





Weirdly enough - clean sheets. I love hopping into bed when my sheets have been freshly laundered that day.




Buying random cute mugs from starbucks.
Funny you say this..I have a Benz E350 & I drop it off at the dealership for the normal upkeep & it runs so strong & after a few tanks of gas there's a slight sluggish affect. I've heard about shell's gas but haven't run it exclusively to see results. I'll check it out.
Staying in Vegas with the wife.....pretty much everything about it.

Okay well please note that the last 6 months I have basically been on skid row eating rice and popcorn, and the 6 months prior to THAT I was spending someone else's money.
Then for the five years before THAT I was dancing and living like so:
Glancing at the TV show COPS in the mirror (tv behind me) and smoking bowls as I do my makeup for an hour, ahhh the luxury
Having a small purebred dog to fuss over and take all about town
Those special mushrooms that are like piggie ears, the oyster mushrooms, and the ones that go in spring rolls.
Buying pre-made salads instead of preparing it all myself
getting new fishnets at the slightest sign of a rip, can't stand the ripped-stocking look on girls unless they do their H&mkup well.
getting new cotton thongs and sports socks when the old ones lose stetchieness or look dirty
candles lit while bathing and slowing methodically shaving every leg, armpit, coochie hair off. IDK what I'd do if I ever got electrolysis, just soak I guess!
Ice tea infused with fruit juices or other flavored teas
being able to afford to dance classes
taking trips all around the state to pop in old friends who never get the money or time to travel like me.
Alway getting top shelf gangja at the dispensary
Renting a 2 BR for myself so I have one room for extra stuff and the whole living to myself to stretch!
And now...Having TWO small purebred dogs to fuss over and take about the town
Having racing rollerblades worth $200+ but I acquired them for $5, they are smooth riding and FAST. I also have a cannondale mtn. bike in white, orange and pink that I got on sale. It took me awhile to find a mtn. bike my size in these colors. Mostly only beach cruisers will be cute and girly. However I have 20 speeds and can jump these curbs unlike the cruisers
OK I guess some of these DO require you to spend money but I never found joy in things like true religion jeans or my coach purse until a man bought them for me. I just mean, the dollar value of something isn't what makes it valuable to me.
MmMmMMmm I forgot about GARLIC
When I make a very garlicky dish for the evening, after carefully peeling each clove and getting it's goodness into my food, I really can't help feeling spoiled on all that flaaavor and the fact that there will be NO ONE to complain about my breath. Dogs can't talk. I just like knowing it's my stinky mouth to have all night. Usually my sweat will be garlicky all night and my mouth tastes funny in the morning if I eat enough.
If I had a man or a real job or a bunch of evening commitments I'd put off the garlic eating for another night....but I feel like a fancy lady that I can just stay in and be garlicky all unto myself.





Red Lobster
Taking dance classes/ yoga classes.
Also clean sheets & towels.
I always fill my gastank but doing it knowing nobody I know really can is exhilerating.





Unbeleavable - 3 tanks. Premium if the car asks for it, regular if it doesn't. You WILL feel a difference.
Charlie - Mobile/Exon is excellent gas, as is Chevron. Sinclair and Conoco are also good. The new Shell fuels have a different additive that is just AMAZING. After 15 years of nothing but Chevron/Exon/Mobil, it's all Shell for me until they catch up.
DesuvaDeath - that's all the crap built up in your motor making it's way out, lol. Tolerate the hiccups for one tank, feel it get better on the 2nd, and feel your car drive like never before by the 3rd.![]()
