Icon10 Everyone, Please Stop...

Please stop posting such nice watches for sale at such good prices.

My resistance is down and I can hardly resist the urges I feel.

I'm going to get in trouble, again!

Two-tone bluesy...

MUST NOT SUCCUMB!

an idea.
what does your wife or partner like alot? bags, shoes, dresses? (all of the above)
find out or maybe you know already ( but us males can be forgetful)
Find 1 or 2.
Buy it/ them with the money you have left over from getting a good deal.
Unveil both on the same day.
I bought us both a nice present etc etc.
You will probably still get in trouble but... you thought about her.
and good luck

College tuition bills. That's it!

Instead of the required payment, I juice it every month,
just like I juice our mortgage.

Two different socio-economic backgrounds clashing at nearly every purchase
since forever.

On the bright side, SHE has helped me get my spending somewhat under control, hence no credit card debt.

But I subscribe to the Doritos slogan...'Don't worry. We'll make more!' and Nike's...'Just do it.'

Thanks Chris.

Funny, Astabula, I was there for Quad (ATV) racing many years ago. Pitted for a friend in the veteran class. Had a lot of fun, met a bunch of pro riders since we were pitside.

Hey, I looked at hotels earlier, but I must warn you, I do snore!

You're pretty much screwed, pal. I recognize the "enabler" in your avitar (I can't mention his name but his initials are Dan Pierce). Next thing we know you're going to be buying a whole whack of Tudor watches!!!

Brother Craigster, it's futile to struggle!!!! Give in to your desires. PS, Ashtabula is a long way from Strongsville. Strongsville is a S/E suburb of Cleveland, and Ashtabula is practically in PA. No room at the Inn for you Brother. And I'm certain you wouldn't enjoy a four week old baby waking you up every 2 hours to feed and change.
