I keep tellin her it wern't my fault they charged me 250 bucks fer em!!!:rolleyes: Seriously, ment to get a couple things and for I knowed it, I done spent over 200 bucks!

yes it becomes an addiction...starts out like something u would like to try. One thing leads to another, someone makes a suggestion, and before long you are a goner...welcome to the club.
Bad thing is you probably know what you forget to order.

Been there, here's what i've been hearing... "You're not gettin another thing until I get my tatoo!" She's wanted this thing (estimated cost: $300+) for 3 yrs, I bought a kayak a year ago and told her... "See, I do know how to save money... can't help it you don't!" Spent a few lonely nights on that one, now I need a new vise. :(
Well, that's bout the time I got my eyballs put back in place, so I went on to check out. Anyway, gotta have somethin to buy to tick her off fer gettin ticked of to start with!:DQuote:

and if she gets mad and wont talk for a few days all ya gotta do is lay the cabelas catalogue on the table opened up to some 1000 dollar item, with the credit card layin beside it, and the phone laid beside that, then just leave the house. your cell phone will be ringin before you can make the stop sign at the end of your street, and she'll be talkin too!
Dont feel bad I havent even tied my first jig yet and have spent well over $300 already on different items and materials and as of right now i still have nothing to show for it, for everything is in the mail headed here. I am beyond she is gonna kill me I'm DEAD MEATQuote:

Your buddies on here and Crappie.com are in no way responsible for your buying behaviors. If you're not sneaky enough to get it in the house or have it shipped to another location you can not blame your brethren or the Board for your troubles!!!!!!!!!:p:p:p:p:p:p
Use the 48 hr rule.....
as in, if you can get it in the house for 48 hrs w/o her noticing - you can then honestly say....
"That old stuff - I've had that stuff forever........"
