I've given my wife probably $25k-$30k in jewelry since we married 18 years ago. She wears hardly any of it.

If you are buying jewelry from any store advertising on TV you are likely paying for cheap shite!

“Buy your wife thousands of dollars worth of jewelry or you’re not getting the poon"

FYP

That's what "every kiss begins with Kay" suggests and all the others.

I’ve never cared about jewelry. My husband quotes Ron White when those commercials come on: “Diamonds-that’ll shut her up”.

Buying jewelry is old school. Married 38 year and yes, I bought the wife a lot of nice jewelry over the years. Most were custom made. She doesn't wear it most of the time, which I understand. She has also gave a bunch to our daughter which is fine by me.

Looking back, would I buy jewelry again for her? Why yes as long as it is custom made. Yes, one does pay a lot more, but it is always a one of a kind piece and I know the value will not drop. Investment, not really for us, but maybe 100 years or so from now a great granddaughter or someone in my family will have a nice piece passed down.

Kind of dumb to spend loads of money on stuff that isn’t worth it.

Mrs. 19 and I were having a laugh at one of the Jared commercials...I made the remark that the woman in the ad looked so touched at getting that ugly-assed jewelry that she might even let him PIIHB.

Mrs. 19's smile slowly faded. After about 10 minutes she says, "So...most husbands PAY for that?"

And you're falling for it. I'd call that smart advertising.
