      Spending money in a Lucid dream?

      Hi I just had a question about spending money while being lucid. Last night I had a dream that I was staying in a wonderful 5 star hotel. While I was looking around my new suite I realized happily that I was dreaming. After I made sure to calm down a bit so I wouldn't wake up I went downstairs and saw a spa there where they were giving massages. Of course that cost money. At that point I wasn't sure what to do. I thought maybe if I went back to my room I might find my wallet and use my Debit card to pay. But then if it wasn't there how would I pay for it? I thought maybe I could see if I could get it to appear in a drawer or something. But then I thought my brain might overload trying to work this all out for me and make me wake up. So I amused myself in other ways till I woke up. But I was just wondering if anyone else had come upon a similar experience and how do you guys go about paying for things in a dream? Sounds a bit silly but there you are!

      Oooh this is a fun topic I've never read about before!!

      Hmm... if it were me, I would've just gone up for a massage and said, "I already wrote you guys a check remember? I gave it to her, over there." Stuff like that usually gets my dreams to work the way I'd like them to

      I have dreamt, but not really dreamed, about getting a massage in a dream. I bet it's amazing...!!

      Ha! I should've thought of that. Or maybe just told her to put the bill towards the total charge for my room and everything. Because I'm sure I would've woken up before it was time to pay. I'll remember that for next time. I just don't LD very often so I didn't want to waste time trying to figure out my money so I spent time outside instead. It was a nice "vacation" from my life. I'm still interested to know if anyone else has experienced this situation in a dream before. If you have please post!

      Hahaha, "Yes, please charge it to my room." Yea, part of the fun about lucid dreaming is that it's like a strategy game, almost! At least in those lucids where you have a goal or are trying to control things. What is the most efficient and effective method of getting a dream to go the way you want it to? I've found thinking about the problems you might come across during the day can make it easier while you're asleep.

      Yeah. If I have this dream again I'll know what to do. It's such an addicting feeling to be lucid. I'm hoping to sharpen my dream recall so that it happens again soon!

      if this happened to me (witch it has) i just p[icture myself aa rich man. A cool thing is that instead of makeing something happen i make myself something that CAN do it. For example, if i needed to buy something expensive than i just make myself a rich man and walk out side to my limo and get my money. If i want to fly ima bird.

      Lol Thanks you guys! You're all so funny. I will try a different technique next time instead of just sitting outside and staring at the sky. (Although that was quite nice too...) I would've rather had a spa treatment though

      Oh to pay for things, make diamonds from normal rocks, or gold, or silver, or simply treat the life of the owners, all of them tend to work XD

      a good way to make smaller objects to appear is by thinking it will be in your pocket and then pull it out of your pocket.

      Or you could just say "Hmm, I own this place, don't you recognize me?".
      There is no greater joy than soaring high on the wings of your dreams, except maybe the joy of watching a dream who has nowhere to land but in the ocean of reality.

      It's not just your spa- you are the master and creator of their entire universe. Demand a massage and if they refuse, kill an innocent bystander and ask again.

      Show those impudent DCs who's boss.

      True, a passive way to force a dream character to do something is threatening them.
