In need of a little time at the spa? The Spa at the Four Seasons is offering a screaming deal on Thursday, Oct. 15 from 6 to 8 p.m. that you should seriously consider snapping up.

They’re calling it Spatoberfest, and for $30 you get valet parking and your choice of a mini-treatment, including a 15-minute Mini Pumpkin Enzyme Facial with Oxygen Infusion, a 25-minute Maple Sugar Mini Manicure with exfoliation or a 15-minute Mini Peppermint Foot Reflexology with hand paraffin.

As an added bonus if you book a future treatment valued at $100 or more, you get a $25 Spa certificate as well as a complimentary lip or eye enhancement or scalp elixir.

You’ll also have a chance to win a gift basket filled with all sort of goodies and a 50-minute treatment.

When times are tight, do you still splurge on trips to the spa? Do you still get your brows waxed? I’m interested to hear your take on where personal care ranks during these tough times. Please respond in the comment section below.
