who asks before spending : Fishing Polls

SMITHY · Posted: Fri Jan 11, 2008 11:00 pm Post subject: who asks before spending

i was wondering how many of us ask before we buy or do you run the guantlet when you get home ? my motto for years has been "ive never understood the guy who has to ask the missus to buy something, i just buy it and take it home. terina wont talk to me for 2 weeks but god its peacefull" :twisted:

. now im not saying that this is right (or wrong :grin:

) but does anyone buy stuff and then hide it in the shed so they dont get caught ? or is everything you buy for yourself have to be asked for ?

Have tried the 'sneak it in the back door' trick. Doesnt seem to work well for me.
Now its just straight up front. Mrs Dodgy knows Im gonna buy it anyway. Just chalk up a couple more hours of overtime.

Bigger purchases I usually do my research a fair while before so there is plenty of warnings of upcoming bills.

Should see the eye rolling I get when I say, accidently dropped past Cashies on the way home......

:rofl:

Have always heard 'Its easier to ask for forgiveness than permission'

:lolpoint:

Im with Dodgy, Would rather beg for forgivness than ask for permission but that does tend to lead you down a two way street :banghead:

Emma's stuff all ways seams like a waste of money though :rofl:

yeh, know what you mean dude.

if all the ladies would stop spending money on clothes and food and stick to the important things.

Like a good spool of that light yellow 8kg braid to replace the spool of dark yellow 8kg synthetic weave you got last week cos that stuff is so pase!

Well as my wife gets on here for a look every now and again... I will put up the correct answer. :angel:

I ask for everything :angel:

But with a big shed sometimes things just happen to "turn up" :naughty:

I like to live life on the edge (if I can get away with it) :rofl:

Bit like an old yank mate of mine told me once about shooting people (intruders ECT)

"Better to be judged by 12 then carried by 6"

:mrgreen:

Just buy it, stick it in the shed or tackle box and then when you take the missus fishing, let her use a new lure or new bit of fishing gear. :grin:

Then get another new lure out for yourself. :wink:

That way everyone's happy :fishing:

Just before Christmas I was out fishing with my wife when she said " I reckon we need a bigger boat " :clap:

I was so happy I nearly cried. :grin:

So no complaints from her.

I’m a sneak in the back door and hide in the shed type of guy.
I’ve been sitting here all day wondering how the hell I’m going to explain a new Minn Kota turning up on the front of the boat…………….sponsors assistance comes in very, very handy.

For Christ’s sake……….if I had to ask permission I’d be fishing out of a blow-up tractor tyre with a sapling and cotton reel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take a teaspoon full of cement and HTFU you blokes

I was married for 20 years and I just used to buy stuff and barge thru the door and show everything off to the bride. (why not, I'm the boss here) That's why I work hard and she just did menial jobs. :twisted:

If she whinged about it I would just tell her to get back into the kitchen and cook me some frigging eggs. (once were warriors)
For the life of me, I cannot understand why I'm now divorced:bonk:

honestly though, we both used to buy whatever we wanted when we wanted, we could afford it then. (gees i wish i saved some of it)

My bro in law bought a new hi spec triathlon bike for nearly $10K and his missus never knew anything about it – he reckoned she wouldn’t have a clue because the old one was red as well.
