“Don’t cheat yourself. Treat yourself”

“Don’t cheat yourself. Treat yourself” is a popular saying that has been frequently used with food. “Don’t Cheat Yourself buying inferior goods. Treat yourself with a box of De Klyn’s fine candies” was cited in a Cleveland newspaper in 1910. “Don’t Cheat Yourself—But Treat Yourself” was in a bologna advertisement in 1942. “So don’t cheat yourself. Treat yourself to plenty of canned Florida orange juice” was in a 1963 print advertisement.
