£1000 on a package of 30 massages

[oldexpat]

Lets just say your SO or wife asked to spend £1000 to but a package of 30 massages. Apparently there is no time limit when you can use them and also her Mother can go have one also. Apparently if you pay per massage it is £80. Do you think this is a bit excessive? I really can't quite imagine spending this much on massages. What are your thoughts?

That works out at about £33 per massage. It could be good value. But you need to ask yourself would the masseuse still be in business in the future if you were only using them at the rate on one a week? There's also the question of how good a masseuse she is. It would be a lot of money thrown away if she wasn't any good at her job.

Sandy she has been before its a parlour of sorts. I just think its crazy because they could go out of business or something similar. I have squandered plenty of money in my time but I would certainly not go to a pub and give them £1000 to drink away when ever I please. The whole thing doesn't add up?

To me it is a lot of money to shell out but if your wife already has regular massages then it may actually work out to be quite cost effective.

I have bad skin and get regular beauty salon treatments - many of the treatments are available as a "pay as you go" basis but it is also possible to purchase, as your wife has, a block of treatments in advance. It isn't necessarily dodgy.

Do you not trust her judgement in such matters? ;-)

piggynose I don't actually like massages for some reason I find them more painful than pleasurable.
