Now, for those of you who don’t regularly visit Southern California spas, $28 for a massage at a spa is pretty darn good. Groupon was also offering an additional 20% off of local deals, so I punched in the coupon code and my total went down to $28, saving me another $7. One day while I was casually window shopping on Groupon, I stumbled upon a 1-hour massage at a local spa for $35, valued at $60. My hair was sprinkled with split ends, my skin was constantly breaking out, and my back was forever sore. The first year after my life at the spa, I found myself haggard.


Now that I’ve moved on from that career, I unfortunately no longer get that luxury of free pampering. How could I not be? During my time working in a spa as an esthetician, I lived a spoiled life where my massage therapists and I could trade services and get massages and facials for free. I’m a sucker for spa massages, facials, and haircuts. Click here for my full disclosure statement. If you make a purchase through any of these links, I may make a small commission.
