I used to reward myself with a new suit each time. That's right, I dressed to impress when I contracted.
Now my wardrobe looks like a rack at Burtons with sizes all they way up for somebody no longer my size.

If your contract gets canned early, are you going to smash the reward that you've bought?Comment

I do
because an extension is like a pay rise because you don't have to spend bench time looking for a job.
I normally splash out on an extra big piece of stinky blue cheese to go with my cheese and crackers, as opposed to a normal sized piece(\__/)
