Here at MummyPages, we know exactly how tough it is to manage a family budget. The reality is that, more often than not, Mum will go without the treats and luxuries she loved in her pre-baby days in order to give her children everything they need.
And while we’re all about being savvy and sensible when it comes to how we spend, every now and again, we like to fantasise about the awesome (but bold!) things we could buy if we had some extra cash…and no conscience!
With KBC’s new credit card offer with amazing 4% cash reward on grocery and online purchases for 3 months when you take out a credit card between 1st May and 31st July 2015 *– our dreams could be that little bit closer to reality!
Here are 10 crazy things we could buy with our KBC Credit Card if we momentarily lost our mum minds.
1. A stupidly expensive pair of shoes we’d probably only wear once, but love forever. Also if we buy them online, we'd get a cash reward from KBC, so really...we should buy the shoes, right?
2. Flights to a tropical island where we’d be waited on by the tall and tanned Pablo who would provide us with fruity cocktails and massages on demand. We could still keep an eye on our finances from that sunny destination considering KBC's newly launched mobile site is so good!
3. A giant chocolate fountain for our back garden. Again, if we buy this online - and let's face it, where else would we find it! - we'd earn a cash reward from KBC.
4. A personal shopper. Not for clothes - oh, no - but to do our weekly grocery shopping... And if we use our KBC Credit Card, we can avail of the 4% cash reward!*
5. A super nanny to take care of our children for a week so we can spend those seven days sleeping.
6. Buying out an entire restaurant so we can go out for a nice family meal without people glaring at us when the kids make a little too much noise or the baby cries.
7. A person who will feed our children during that nice family meal, so we can properly eat our first hot meal in years.
8. Some kind of futuristic non-invasive procedure where we’re given our 20-year-old figures and skin back.
9. A meet-and-greet with Michael Fassbender during which he would fall in love with us and whisk us away to Paris for a romantic dinner. There would also be dancing. And a fabulous dress.
10. A family holiday to somewhere sunny that the kids will love. Because let’s face it – we wouldn’t really enjoy those other things knowing our little ones couldn’t share in our joy.
