1. My top of the line sewing machine
2. Chocolate–Hershery Nuggets with Almonds, & Dove milk chocolate ice cream bars
3. Air conditioning in the summer (mostly because of health problems)
4. My stair climber that allows me to go up and down the stairs and thus live in my 2 storey house
5. At this point my computer and high speed internet

Probably other things but these ones are biggies to me.

Besides internet:
1. Organic Milk – I drink enough milk that the chemicals in regular milk concern me
2. Tide detergent – I feel like clothes come out cleaner even while using a lesser quantity, plus I love the scent. I do buy in bulk to keep costs down
3. Good shoes – I refuse to buy cheap, inexpensive and poorly made shoes that could ruin my feet. I typically stick to a couple of brands, and buy shoes less often
4. Good bra – I got lower back pain and general discomfort from buying cheap bras, especially because of my size and weight. Now I only buy one brand, and replace them when they conk out on me
5. Quality nail polish – I have nearly eliminated the need for nail salons, a former bi-weekly expense, by doing my own manicures. But I will not give up my favorite polish brands because I am convinced my nails stay manicured longer with them. I only buy OPI and Essie on sale at beauty supply stores, and rarely buy them because they last forever.

That’s my list, for the most part!
