$100 Guilt Free
This post poses the exact opposite question that you will find on this blog about money. I am curious what is easy for you to spend money on. I am not talking about what is easy for you to waste money on, I am talking about the thing you actually enjoy spending money on.
Let's say you take $100 out of your own budget to spend it on something. Where can you go spend that money and after it's gone feel like it was totally worth it? No buyers remorse just pure satisfaction.
For me it has to be going out to eat. Both Allison and I enjoy a good restaurant and have never regretted spending money on a nice meal with good friends. We don't get to do it as often as we would like, but just the other night we went to a delicious French place with our friends down in the village, and it was fantastic.
The meal was close to $100 for us and a big reason it was guilt free was because the money was in the recreation envelope just sitting there waiting for us to use it. I am telling you the envelope system rocks!

books
Mine would be meals out, too, or books! I used to offer to pay for all of my friends to go out to eat in college when they were low on cash just for the good food and memories. (I don't think they ever took me up on it -- I think they just rolled their eyes and went)
Books...or a good massage. I almost always regret spending money to go out to eat.
Prety much any sporting event (espcially a good day at the ball park). Books, movies, food, anything for Mindy or our baby. A Barnyard/Borrowed Equiptment reunion.
A hundred bucks in your rec envelope??? What's THAT like?!?
