Oh dear ... the missus came home recently with a friend's Myakka catalogue and now she's added a whole load of "I'd like that ... and those ... and also those" to her wish demand list.
The latest additions being 8 x replacement cushions for our dining chairs at £30 each. WTF do you need to spend that much on cushions that get splattered in food by kids and everyone else? And these are expected to be part of the stocking fillers!
I'm sure this is going to come out wrong, because the gist is that I'm all for spending money and getting the best we can, but I do get the hump when she wants stuff that I see as unnecessarily extravagant. I don't like saying that, but sometimes I feel that she sees something she likes (that happens to be OTT expensive) and just has to have it.
Anyone else expected to do the same?
EDIT: and before anyone says "But you buy MTB stuff, and outdoor stuff, etc ... Sure, but I use the damn stuff - I don't just have it sat around doing nothing."
mrsconsequence i cant resist splashing out on ( 
stifle those naughty thoughts gents) and i always end up spending much more than i planned... problem is she's so easy to buy for.. anything that would make a 4 year old child happy is perfect, and luckily she's weird and likes "practical presents" too, so buying things like kitchen utensils is welcomed.
