Colorado Tops List of States Where People Treat Themselves Most
Fort Mason Games - a female-run mobile gaming company has commissioned a survey to find out how Americans choose to treat themselves, and who treats themselves the most. Colorado lands at the top of the list, neck in neck with Washington and Maryland.
The study found that giving yourself some "me time" can greatly benefit your health and wellness.
