Kicking myself

[Docd]

I found a once in a lifetime deal on the bay yesterday. I showed it to my wife who promptly refused to allow me to get it at such a steal...what was this wonderful thing you ask...a cased toggle with the blades and instructions. Perfect working order with little to no wear on the gold finish...BIN $100. Gone in minutes...

 

[ouch]

You'll miss her.

Should of shown her AFTER you hit the BIN button

There's an old saying, "It's easier to ask forgiveness than to get permission". Lesson learned!

I would have divorced her on the spot...............

Her? the wife or Toggle?

The wife of coarse...... And this comes from a wife....

She owes you a least one "Get Out of Jail Free" cards for that one.

Bummer . . . Not to make matters worse, but a $100 toggle is an investment. Wives should appreciate a good investment.

You could have tripled your money easy with a re-sell whenever you decided . . . and then bought your wife some nice flowers. Something to bear in mind for next time.

or she gets no new clothes and shoes for a month...that was a $200 to $400 dollar Toggle loss you know, plus he should get to be in his man cave for extra 3 hours day watching tv and eating/snacking whatever he wants...............Connie do you think im going over board?

 

[Docd]

Live and learn...IF I ever get the chance again I'll never ask. She'll never know until she notices it on the shelf.

No!
Unless his man cave is also his shave den..... then that would kinda like being in the dog house, depending on how big his shave den is...

 

[celestino]

Wow!

 

[ironfist]

Damn that sucks! Should have just hit the trigger. Woman don't phone when their out shopping to tell you they've bought something, they wait until they show you, or you notice the damn bags haha

 

[Dalejr]

I wouldn't have blinked...

 

[buma]

I wouldn't have blinked...

+1, but knowing me, I may have hemmed and hawwed and also waited myself out of a super deal such as this...

 

[drocu]

Holy cow, I found it. Listed as a "gold adjustable".

The only thing missing was the blade pack.

I couldn't find it either looking for a BIN "gillette razor" with a price ~$100.

Guess I just overlooked the blade pack not being there. Still makes my stomach churn.
