[QUOTE="SDarkRage, post: 1579278, member: 3492"] What works good for the wife and I, is that the first time we went out shopping for her stuff, I bit my tongue and bided my time until she was through. It was quite a long time. She was tired and ready to go home, and I said "Sorry, its my turn now." I proceeded to take her shopping everywhere I wanted to go (which were mostly places she doesn't really care to spend much time in) and I spent exactly the same amount of time that she did. I told her on the way home that, "From now on, however much shopping you get to do and I gotta tag along, thats how much more shopping that we get to do shopping for my stuff." She got the point right off the bat, and its never been an issue since. Now, its bum rush the shopping and get the hell out and back home. The money part, I don't really care about because she's very thrifty, but for me its the time investment that kills me. P.S. - you can only spend so much time walking around Home Depot and Lowes, before you've seen it all twice and its like beating a dead horse. Love me some Bass Pro and H&H though! [/QUOTE]
