Monthly Self-Care
I want to get in the habit of these self-care rituals monthly:
- Car wash
- Massage
- Pedicure
Obviously, these expenses can add up quickly. To keep costs down, I go with the most basic and inexpensive car wash, I get massages as a massage school (the cost is $40 flat), and I try to get inexpensive pedicures.
All of these things are indulgences, but they bring a lot of happiness into my life. At least I save money by rarely going to places like Starbucks, not buying alcohol, and not having cable!

I also find a pedicure to be a great way to indulge and relax. I recommend being careful about cheap pedicure options, though.

OMG - car washes are the best. A useful, finite experience. I always feel accomplished afterwards.
That's a great point, Sarah! I don't go to super-cheap places--I just avoid super "spa-like" places.
Anthropolochic--I can't wait until my children are in booster seats and I can remove them before getting a car wash. There's so much stuff that accumulates under them!
