About to hit a big scale victory-Reward ideas needed!

I'm currently just about 3 pounds off from having lost 20 pounds, and at the current rate i've been losing over the last month and a half, I should hit the big 2-0 in a couple weeks. That is 1/3 of the way to my goal weight, so that's kind of a big deal for me. I'd like to reward myself in some way (other than food), but i'm coming up at a loss of some way to do it. Budget is 50 dollars or less, any ideas? Thanks!

    I'd go for a new workout outfit, something that let's you see the progress and keeps you motivated to continue! Nice work!

    Good for you. I also think it is important to reward yourself along the way, and great that you are not going for a food reward.
    A few things - new hair, new makeup, new outfit, movie (no popcorn) lol, new book, manicure. or two of my favorites a massage or facial

    My daughter would agree with rockin2014 new shoes but I only wear shoes because I have to.

    HAVE FUN AND LET US KNOW WHAT YOU DECIDE

    I love the foot- and calf- massage (and massage chair) that go along with a pedicure! And your feet feel nice and soft afterwards (and it doesn't break the bank)! Congrats

    Don't spend too much on any clothes, hopefully anything you buy now won't fit for long.

    Thanks all! I'd go with the shoes, but I just bought a new pair of converse all-stars for lifting weights at the gym (red ones like the tenth Doctor on Doctor Who, hehe), so maybe one of the other suggestions instead. ;)
