Every year I end up buying more for me than I do presents. Since my Pa can’t pop and do my handyman jobs for me I’ve treated myself to a B&D drill and a drill bit set  
Woo hoo! There’s gonna be holes all over the place
What’s you ‘self-gifting’ indulgence this year? |

Its a joint self gift. Its a ninja slow cooker/ pressure cooker, airfryer,dehydrator 9in1 jobby. We got one as a housewarming for my daughter and her man and thought why not ! It's got good reviews and I like the ninja kitchen appliances I have already. |

I'm buying myself a new accessible bathroom, initially supposed to be done before Christmas but now happening in January due to the company doing it having staff off sick/isolating. It'll be a joy not to have to climb into the bath every day for a shower |

Or i may bugger off to the Canaries for Christmas. 
We want to do that (Tenerife) but Mr KC is ill and don't want to plan/book anything  "
That's a damn shame, but something to look forward to when he's better. X |

I will indeed. I did do a lot of review reading. I use my slow cooker almost everyday and fancied an upgrade. I'm also excited it has a dehydrator so I can do tomatoes and fruit and also dog chews ( the dogs are very keen to test it out)  |

I'd love an accessible bathroom, we only have a bath which i used to love (hated having a shower) but now it's so difficult to get in and out the bath and lowering myself into the water and then getting out is really painful. I need to work out an easier way lol |

This is so lovely! I hope you have many happy times together. x
I'm not too sure if I'm going to treat myself to anything this year. Possibly coffee with a friend that's long overdue? I am seriously considering a spa break at a beautiful place near me because I'd love the chance to have some me time. |

I’ll be treating myself to a Dyson DC! I’ve tried economising and buying cheaper vacuums but they don’t do the job as well and don’t last - so a Dyson it is! |

The shark vacuum is better, so the staff tell me. |

This year is different and treats are well deserved "
That all the encouragement I need, thanks Diamond, now off to do some bike shopping

I start out with the intentions of Xmas shoping online. So far I've brought one pressie for my son. But I also have a new drill, a new mitre saw and several other tool related items which just jumped into the shopping basket while browsing online . |

I have a Dyson stick. Wouldn’t be without it but don’t forget to order a mini extension hose for the stairs and your car! |

Yup, I get in/out in a very elaborate way, involving a lot of upper body strength and the risk of falling flat on my face when I get out. Fortunately the wall is there to catch me
We're getting a walk in shower cubicle but keeping a shorter bath so that's still an option, especially for our daughter. I'm looking for a shower seat that doesn't look like it's provided by the NHS  |

I’m intrigued by this, it looks so good but I have the instant pot and never use it... |

I don’t gift myself as prefer giving gifts but I do save up my points from boots all year and spoil myself in the sale. Actually that’s a lie after buying a close friend a echo show on Black Friday I order “the family” one as was really impressed |

I have ordered myself a seal pillow from Wish.com!
It is my Christmas treat to myself, However it probably won't get to me until the end of January what with how slow Wish are to ship items from China! |

I don’t self gift; the only time I have had to is when the lad wrote a letter to Santa asking for help to buy me a present after I left the ex, he was upset that there wasn’t anyone to buy a present for me.
A gift for me on Christmas Day is the smile on my lad’s face as he opens his surprises, that’s worth more than anything material |

I've just treated myself to some perfume and trainers. My family thought it was a good idea to do a secret santa for the adults this year, but we're all kind of regretting it now as it feels a bit miserable to only buy and get one gift. Don't think we'll do this again but I'll just buy for myself to make up for it in the meantime |
