Rewarding myself

I'm a college student, and, therefore, I am very poor. I love the idea of rewarding myself for meeting goals, but I'm having trouble thinking of rewards that don't involve money.
Anyone got some ideas for me?

    Treat yourself to a trip to the library for something FUN to read instead of textbooks, or take a nice hot bubble bath instead of a shower. Rewards don't have to cost anything. Instead of paying for a manicure, have some friends over and do each other's nails. Just reward yourself with something enjoyable.
  • Allowing yourself to have free-time to read a magazine, take a bath or watch your favorite TV show (rather than hitting the books).
    Personally, I found that as I got healthier - the reward for me was having more energy, sleeping sounder, getting stronger and looking better! :)

    Best wishes to you!
  • Thanks you guys! Those are great ideas!
