I don't know if this counts as pampering myself but I like to indulge in makeup. When I hit a goal or need a boast I make an order with my favorite makeup company Everyday Minerals.
My favorite thing to do is to take a hot bubble bath and read a book in the tub. My family has strict orders not to bother me and my alone time.
I have also designated Wednesdays as my ME day. I do the grocery shopping that day but I also stake out discount shops BY MYSELF and spend the day driving around visiting different stores. I don't even have to buy anything I just like to look!
Nails, tanning, highlights, cute shoes, super cute (but not expensive) clothes that fit and flatter. Makeup, perfume, flowers. Books, inexpensive jewelry. I don't reward myself with food anymore...so I go all out on other stuff. ) On a budget of course.
My splurge is a date night with the husband...like the drive in movie, or to take me to a real movie. Something with him.....it's probably the newlywed on us that hasn't wore off yet
I will admit i spoil myself! I do facials twice a month, manis/pedis once a month. Right now I'm holding off on buying a lot of new clothes until I lose another 10lbs. However, I recently bought myself a few new outfits that are very flattering and I think motivate me even further to lose weight (I look and feel great!).

I`ve just started to do my own facials. I used to go to salons periodically but I feel that they do nothing which I cannot replicate at home, so that`s what I do now.
Yesterday, I bought myself four items of clothing, and where 2 were still in my "usual" size, 2 were a size lower. All of them are lovely and not expensive, and I`ll make sure to wear them plenty for the rest of this summer as hopefully they`ll be too small next year! :-)
How do you...
