If yes-what have been some of your treats for yourself or your family?
 
Going out for a nice dinner is classic and never gets old!

The last two times I bought a purse. Once fror my record busting fall 2 years ago and the other was this July when I broke my sales record.
 
Let's see... I saved a % of my sales for a couple years and then took my husband to Tahiti for our 25th. This January and February I had awesome months so I bought Packer stock for my sons and husband. Don't tell - they'll get them at Christmas. Otherwise, when ever we can we go on weekend or overnight trips to fun places with my "extra".

Wow! That is fantastic! You should post a few photos here!
 
There are alot of months I am working towards a specific goal, I doubled my sales (hit over $15,000) in July so I could afford to take my family to the beach this year.
