A steal of a deal!!!!!
So today my mom and i went to her jewlery store that she has been going to for like 20 years if not more... i was picking out rings that i like for jeff and i as our wedding bands and i must say i was about to fall over...for a simple band for me they were asking $200, and for jeff $400... they said its cause gold has gone up in price....to me thats crazy!!! maybe i am just cheap i donno... but then the owner came out and was talking to mom and i said got any really good deals.... he suggested showing me rings that people have traded in(like after they get a divorce)... i said sure it cant hurt.... well i must say i am sooo glad i did because i found a ring exactly like the ones i was just looking at for $200-$400 and all i can say is we are getting an amazing deal!!!...all that needs to be done is jeffs needs to be sized and they need a polishing before the wedding..... they look brand new!!!!

So for the brides out there like me that dont wanna spend that much on just a plain gold ring.... i would ask your jewlery store clerk.......They dont normally sell these rings but because we asked they are going to.... i am so excited about this find....

Thanks for the comment :-)

Actually it's funny cause I was engaged before (things were not going well for a while and he knew that I was thinking about our relationship and he proposed anyways... )

Anyhow.. basicly, I went back to the jeweller where the ring was bought... (he did not want it back) and we did a trade up.. So the original pirce he paid was like $850 plus tax.. so as long as we bought double the price (for 1700) we would get the $850 in credit.. so our rings (all of them) are worth $1750) and we paid $900.. so the girl that will get my ring is luck cause I only wore it for abouth 1 month!!!
