Tell us: are you splurging on luxury goods you can ill afford?

We’re interested to hear about people’s spending habits in the area of upmarket or luxury goods, services and experiences, and whether they are generally happy with their spending on non-essentials.

We’d like to know whether you have spent money on expensive non-essential items such as designer clothing, high end housewares, luxury holidays, expensive beauty or wellness treatments, or exclusive dining, for instance, in the past year, and if so, whether you have struggled to afford this.

We’re also keen to hear whether your attitude towards spending on luxury goods or experiences may have changed in recent years, and which factors you believe may have contributed to this.
