Alan32 891 Posted November 12, 2018 Strange isn't it that its perfectly all right for a woman to have eleventy billion shoes, and have perfected the inocent "Oh! this old thing I've had it for ages" yet the minute a man buys his forty third watch all hell breaks loose!!!!!

BenjaminButton 149 Posted November 12, 2018 Mrs Button only passes comment when we are grocery shopping and I comment on the cost of something she prefers and she’ll simply say ‘how many watches have you got?’. She doesn’t like expensive clothes, handbags, shoes or jewellery and when we got married she only wanted a registry office ceremony that cost £45. She’s an amazing, beautiful woman and I’m one lucky, lucky man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stratoblaster 4 Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) I work at a pawn shop. The wife has zero idea of difference between vintage Elgin, Tissot, etc. Nothing major, but still had to tell her I offered helped with $15 for vintage Tissot head to a homeless guy. Edited November 15, 2018 by Stratoblaster Most homeless probably do not have Tissots, and pawn shop had passed on items before I bought one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nivka 5 Posted November 16, 2018 I solved this problem. Wifey and I each take 5% of our combined income each week and we can spend it on whatever non-essentials we want (eg coffee, lunch, booze, clothes, watches). I take a packed lunch every day, save my pennies then don’t feel guilty when I save enough for a new purchase Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
