June 18: National Splurge Day

Go ahead. You know you want. I mean, why not? It is National Splurge Day after all, isn’t it?

Wow. I sound like I’m on someone’s shoulder in an old cartoon, dressed in red tights with horns and a pitchfork. In a minute, somebody in a white nightgown on the other shoulder will start arguing with me.

Anyway, if it’s June 18, it is National Splurge Day. This holiday was created by Adrienne Koopersmith in 1994, to support splurging of all sorts. So whether you’re a terrible shopaholic, aching for that brownie a la mode, ready for a day at the spa, or something else entirely, go ahead and splurge (You can blame it on the holiday).

“I denied myself nothing my eyes desired;
    I refused my heart no pleasure.
My heart took delight in all my work,
    and this was the reward for all my labor.”

Ecclesiastes 2:10
