Is being poor or cheap ultimately the same thing?

By not buying jewelry

Mistake #1 was going to a big box store. You will get much better pricing and quality at a local jeweler. IE - went to a local store in Nola and walked out with 15% off the sticker price and paid with a CC on one of the transactions.
Someone else said be a commander and not an asker. If you walk in without doing research on the 5 C's, established budget, and knowledge of current diamond/gold/platinum/silver prices you are losing significant purchase power.
You'd also be shocked by how much better pricing is at what are considered "the expensive jewelry stores".

Even if she’s currently doing everything you mentioned there, that shite’s coming to an end as soon as she gets that ring.

It’s been a long time, but I once started with zero knowledge of diamonds and did some decent studying on them and looked at them in many stores.
I walked in a Zales in the mall and could tell right away, even with just a couple weeks of study, that most of their diamonds were of subpar quality.

Offer 25% of the listed price. Buy for 30%

Shove your finger 2 knuckles deep into your nose, dig around, and then try the ring on the same finger.

Zales is like the Walmart of diamond store bruh

If there is only one piece of advice I can give you is to stay the hell away from Anton’s. They are the absolute worst in this state. The merchandise is garbage and they will screw you anyway they can. Especially that short, pig nosed, no lipped, downsy looking dude that works there. Think his name is Rich or something like that

Guy has to ask how to buy an engagement ring.....
Probably not yet ready for marriage unless he's ready for the cuck lifestyle.

You need to read this: LINK /
Zales is extremely overpriced for the quality. Their reasonably priced diamonds are horrible quality (I-1 to I-3 clarity...super dirty stones). Even at some mega discount, it’s not a deal.
