    If I didn't have beauty product overload, I'd resubscribe to one or more beauty subscription. Birchbox and ipsy are $10/month and usually send 4-5 higher end beauty products (mostly deluxe sample size, but often a full size).

    PopSugar is about $35/month but they send a lot of stuff, from beauty products, to food, to lifestyle products and jewelry.

    There are about a billion services out there. Including fitness ones, I think one is crave box.

    Concious box and eco-emi are natural type boxes, and iirc, they're around $15/month. Conscious box is heavy on food.

    If you're interested in something like that (monthly motivation and rewards) Google subscription boxed. There's a site that lists all ofthem, can't remember the name, but makeup talk also has lists of them.

    Avoid posh pod, red carpet box, and gogo girlfriend, as they're scams.

    Perhaps some salon/spa treatments. A plain manicure ought to be around 20 depending on where you live. Or you could buy a new piece of workout clothing. I do rewards too and my next one is a new pair of workout shoes but that's a bit more than 20...

    I bought myself a new purse at 10 lb lost, and I'll be doing a pedicure once I hit halfway on my weight loss (1.1 lb to go!!!!) Roughly every 5 lb after that I'm buying myself a Tall Pumpkin Spice Latte/new book until I hit goal, then I have no idea. I never do big rewards anyway... Mine are all <$20 (even the pedicure, Groupon is good for that).

    I think this is a cool idea. I think I will try something similar.

    This time around I am putting $1 in the jar every day that I workout at least 30 minutes. The jar is not filling up as fast, but it seems to be a better incentive to get up off my butt (my biggest challenge - not food - but activity). I don't know exactly what I will buy, but it will be something I wouldn't get myself without some sort of sacrafice.

    I love this for incentive to workout. I think I am going to steal your idea. Thanks

    Clothes! When I reached my goal I found the dress I had been looking at all summer on the clearance rack for $14.99! It was a sign from the universe to me when the only ones left were in a small size I never would have tried on before- and it fit perfect!

    I like to reward myself with something fitness related. Workout clothing, weights, new program....or a massage..... I find that it helps keep me going to reward myself once in a while.

    Hmm, I never thought about this honestly. Maybe every 5-10 Ibs a new book or piece of makeup? Not too sure yet.

    To those who mentioned the monney for every time you work out or lose a certain amount of weight. I LOVE that idea, I'm gonna bring it up to my friend who teamed up with me and see if she'd like to do this too.
