Valentines Day...

Mitco39 · 02-14-2013, 02:48 PM

You know how some guys will go on the thought that counts instead of spending alot of $$? You know, the ones who will make a card or do something like make up coupons for her. The cheap "but thoughtful" way out. I realized this week that this only will work for you if she doesn't know how much you spend on your car. Mine is aware of the $$ that went into my Z over the winter, and if I was to cheap out and go with a freebie gift it just wouldn't feel right. She would be ok with it, but you know that she would secretly think horrible thoughts about your Z.

LOL so to say the least I spent a little $$ on her so that the Z and her can live happily together under the same roof.

kenchan · 02-14-2013, 03:30 PM

so what exactly did you spend on for your wifey?

Mitco39 · 02-14-2013, 03:33 PM

Still a way from being a wife, haha. I just bought some Jewelry, nothing to fancy. Was going to do just a expensive dinner, but as I said in my first post I had to spend a bit more. haha

Mine got $200 flowers that will die in a couple weeks and a $150 dinner with her Mom since I'm gone. Can't go wrong with food and flowers. I just hate watching my money wilt.

Next time you feel like burning $200, send it my way. I got some mods to buy. I'll slap a "sponsored by SS_Firehawk" sticker on her as well.

Bought some cheap roses since they will be dead in a few days anyways and just finished making some chocolate covered strawberries with white chocolate drizzled on top. Cheap, but thoughtful...at least I chose Godiva chocolate, haha. I think it all cost me about $30. We've only been dating for a couple months, but she also knows I just went ahead with building my heads and upgrading my cam

haha. I tried buying cheap flowers, worst crap ever. Now she got accustomed to the bad *** ones. It would be like taking you out of your Z and putting you into a Versa. It's the least I could do. She lets me sink retarded amounts into my Z. Helps I got her dent fixed, she's also getting Re760's for her Maxima, and some EBC green stuff brake pads.

Maybe I should put you in touch with my husband. Shiz, I could use just one rose right now.
