Sure, we are all strapped for cash this season due to a crappy economy but it does not necessarily mean we have to stop spending money on luxury items (is not luxury a relative term anyways?). Heres why: some luxuries allow us to distress (which keeps us healthy and cancer free) or free up our time to make more money if thats what we choose.
Luxuries that can be Considered Essentials even in a Bad Economy
There are a variety of ways to enjoy yourself even in a bad economy. Your best bet is to research prices and options to find the cheapest rates.
Luxuries that can be Considered Essentials even in a Bad Economy
- Spa Treatments: Spa treatments are considered by experts to not only be distressing but body scrubs and massages are health inducing as well.
- Teeth Bleaching: Who does not want to look good even in a bad economy? Teeth whitening is a relatively cheap and easy way to feel good.
- Professional Housekeeping: Imagine hiring a professional housekeeper to deep clean your house. Luckily you can hire them just once a month or twice or even once a year. All I know is that having someone come to my home occasionally and spend some time scrubbing my dirty floors relieves a huge burden from my shoulders! Imagine the time a service like this will save you as well so that you can focus on more important things.
- Quick Vacation: I grew up in a family that was constantly conscious of money and that it could become scarce at any moment! We were never taught as children to enjoy it. The problem with this is that instead of memories of fun vacations we usually sat at home. You can always find locations within a reasonable distance from your home that are inexpensive to visit. Chances to build special memories with your young children will not last forever.
