Originally Posted By avimagine Lowes I'd add a second LG fridge to go beside my first, perhaps the 23 cu ft french door (without ice maker) it's 33" wide added to the current 36" wide fridge would give me 51 cu ft and a "quasi Sub Zero / Viking / Thermador fridge look". Now the only problem being that the new LG logo is slightly different (the old one was smaller and in a rectangle) and the 23 cu fter is 1/2" shorter. (Yes I thought this through already ) I would add upper Kitchen Craft bamboo cabinets over my chest freezers. (the tall ones with smaller lift ups below). So now that would be 1400 plus about 5000 so i've spend $6400. They have a beautiful wrought iron pergola about $3500 more so $9900. I plan on getting kiddos / giant dog someday so the white carpets will need to go. So some nice flooring (maybe cork) on the main floor would be budgeted for another 5k (15k) spent. In the backyard they have this gorgeous BBQ so another 2 (17k), and a sectional outdoor sofa, bringing me up to 19k. Lets budget another 6k for trees, plants, shrubs etc (23k), and another thousand for an outdoor swing (24k). Let's add another 5k for various millwork (crown mouldings throughout the house, 9" baseboards, rosettes for the door corners, chair rails etc), so 29k now. A beautiful hottub and all its fittings for another 10k so we're at 39k. A walk in sauna for 2, so we're at 41k now. This leaves me another 3k (gotta take those sales tax into account). So maybe an electric fireplace and bookcases, so theres 2k left. For 2k I could add some fancier window coverings to supplement my "single male look" coverings. There done!

New towels and chochkis for the bathrooms, new bedding, kitchen supplies and other items for the home and most importantly JEWELRY! I hope $50K will be enough.
Originally Posted By TXDISNEYNERD I'm very tempted by Macy's, but right now I would have to say The Disney Store online. They have this really cute Rapunzel limited edition costume, but it is over $100 and there is no way I am spending that on a costume. My DD4 though would just look so cute in it. However, if I had a 50K credit card, I would have no problem getting it. No wait. I'm switching back to Macy's. I figure I can get a nice purse, some clothes, jewelry, shoes, stuff for my house, and then I can pick up a few items I can easily sell on e-bay for the $, then I can use that to go buy that costume.

Originally Posted By avimagine ^^^ If you do your labour yourself You can do a decent kitchen (but basic) for 15k assuming you keep your current appliances or go "white' , a decent bath at 10k per, laundry room can be done nicely with LG washer/dryer for 2k and another 2k for nice cabinetry a built in laundry tub, greenhouse they have prefabs for 2k. So It can be done
Originally Posted By avimagine Sorry baths are 5k per, since that's what builders charge (plus a thousand if you want an air or whirlpool tub), a glass shower though starts at 3k depending on your tiles. (I was pricing out a new home recently)
