I'm all for simple living and I think we all have WAY too much stuff.  BUT, a little luxury makes life special, so my husband and I each got to pick one thing that wasn't really necessary, but that we wanted.  I chose a walk in jacuzzi tub.  What luxury would you choose?

I suppose it depends on what you mean by "wasn't really necessary"... but for me probably a dishwasher.

It isn't ever going to happen though I would love something padded on top of my concrete floors.

I am only able to wear flip-flops since they are padded.

I hear you about the jacuzi tub!  I like having a bathtub, usually I just take a shower but I like having a bath for special occasions.  I think my luxury item would be similar to yours, though maybe a full-on hot tub?  So my husband can sit in there with me?

A two person tub, perhaps even a two person jacuzzi tub sounds DIVINE.

If I travel and splurge, I seek accommodations that have this.

So... I think I've talked my husband into doing a smaller, more rustic, version of this for a two person tub..... we have lots of rocks!

 
But why do you wear your googles indoors? While holding this tiny ad?
