What would I do if I had an extra $300 to spend on my best friend? Easy, if I had an extra $300 dollars I would send my best friend to a spa for the day and get her the works: Massage, manicure, pedicure and facial. A day of pampering would be beneficial to her, as she is a mom of 4 and home schools all of her children. She is a dedicated wife and mother and doesn’t take enough time for her. Providing this wonderful gift to her would give her a great rejuvenating experience. This would be the ideal gift to give to my best friend of 25 years.
My best friend just had a baby boy on January 3rd and also has a 3 year old daughter, and lives in Texas and her husband is in Iraq. If I had $300 to spend on her I would give her a day at the spa for her to pamper herself because she truly deserves it, she is a hard-working woman taking care of two very young children by herself with a full-time job while her husband is serving our country for a year. She has to get them both up and ready for day care in the morning with hardly any sleep at night because of the new baby and I know it could get overwhelming sometimes but she is a strong woman and truly deserves at least a day to herself filled with people catering to her, making her feel good.
I would buy my best friend Dori a crown. Dori is a beautiful girl and recently she told me that she has to get a crown put in because she had a root canal done. Her insurance will only pay half and the rest of the balance that she would owe her dentist is $1100. I know that she wants the work done really bad because she called me crying about it. If I had the extra money I’d give it to her. She has been wonderful to me and I love her like a sister.
What would I buy for my best friend if I had an extra $300.00? Thats a tough question because I almost never would have an extra $300.00! My best friend is always caring towards me and knows that I do not have very much disposable income at all. She has at many times purchased me tickets to an event or allowed me to pay her back for something at my own financial pace just so we could enjoy the event together! She never looks down on me for not having as much money as her and always includes me even when I say no I cant afford it! So if I had an extra $300.00 I would do the same for her I would finally be able to purchase tickets for her to an event like a musical or play and be able to say thank you but these tickets are on me!! After the many years of her buying for me I could stand proud and do something kind for her!
My best friend lives across the country from me. She just told me a few days ago that she has osteporosis and heart prolapse, among other things. She works as a registered nurse six days a week double shifts, including weekends. She doesn't get alot of sleep or time to herself. She spends all her time for everyone else and neglets herself. She has done so much for me that I would love to use the $300 to either get her a one day spa certificate to relax and rejeuvenate OR I would buy her a plane ticket to Puerto Rico (where's she's been wanting to go for a long time). My best friend is my mom. She has worked so hard all her life and I think she deserves a small pleasure.
