Shitpost / Memes Convincing the boss

I know there’s a lot of guys on here who say “Buy once/cry once or who buy it and sneak it into the safe but let she realistic…

How do you convince the wife, between mortgage, bills, renovations, etc. etc. to not lose her absolute mind when you want to drop $1000+ on a new firearm?

I’m trying to have a happy marriage here folks. Give me your tips/strategies

Just do it, how many useless things does your wife buy? My wife buys a ton of things that she eventually decides to throw away. That $5000 sectional she decided on a whim to get rid of…the like $200 at a time she spends on seasonal holiday decor, yeah we really need a plastic leaf garland hanging from our fireplace and silly wall art with scripture verses…okay I will go and drop like $600 on gun. No my relationship isn’t healthy and yes I married an American

Mine hasn’t bought herself anything in the 13 years we’ve been together. The most expensive thing she owns is a coach bag she bought on sale for $300.

That’s the problem. Mine works hard, is very frugal and doesn’t do the stupid shopping/needless spending. She spends her money on travel and food and generally that’s things we do together.
