Yeah, yeah. You could be responsible. Pay off some debts. Put it in savings.

But wouldn’t you rather have a little fun with it?

Here are ten splurges I would make! (I won’t, though. I’ll likely do Responsible Things with mine.)

1. Diptique Baises candle

Oh luxury of luxury candles, how badly I want to light one of you in my bedroom every night!

2. Thorn . Oxidized Silver Ring

I kind of want to wear a few of them!

3. Remix Party Of Five Aromatherapy Set

Spritz these around you to help you relax, create, clear, & focus.

4. Illesteva Umbrella 6

I would pray for rain every day.

5. Building Block Stencil Bag

So roomy! So awesome!

6. Edgestar Countertop Dishwasher

Oh how I miss having a dishwasher! This would fill that void quite nicely I think.

7. Half Light Honey Studio Wabi Sabi Serving Bowls

I mean, I might only put chips in them, but they would be chic chips.

8. Plastica Flip Litter Box

Okay it might be ridiculous but I really like the shape of this litter box, & my apartment is so teeny that it would be nice to have the litter somewhere hidden!

9. Townie Original 3i Bike

My bike is great, but it’s super-heavy & creaky. I’d love to whizz around my new ‘hood on a Townie!

10. Bodum Chambord Coffee Press

While I absolutely love my Keurig for busy mornings, I love a French press for mornings when I’m lazing about. Mine is old & leaky, & doesn’t filter all that well anymore. I think this would be a fine replacement.

BONUS: Jabra Stone2 Bluetooth

I’ve mentioned recently that I’m really into talking on the phone right now. Especially hands-free. This would be awesome!

What about you? What are you planning on spending your tax refund on? I’d love to hear about it in the comments!
