[img]graemlins/jawdrop.gif[/img] NICE! In response to your question, I do not think women get tired of jewelry, BUT... I think your tase must match theirs or it's a lot of [img]graemlins/twocents.gif[/img] to waste. I let my wife do the choosing for herself. I got her a pearl ring with diamonds set on each side for our first anniversary - however, it was only on her suggestion. Even knowing that her favorite jewels are diamonds and pearls, I am still hesitant to pick one without her input, as she is rather picky.

As for the price - well, if the jewelry's nice she needs to have a receipt to prove the declared value for insurance purposes, so she'll know how much you paid. There's nothing wrong with this, IMHO. The aforementioned ring I got my wife for our anniversary was bought at a store closing in downtown chicago at a 60% discount. Which is exactly why she, a frugal penny-pincher, wanted it to begin with.

[edit: Oooopsie, I'm not a girl. I am allowed to reply though, right? [img]graemlins/readingbook.gif[/img] ]
