While you're running about hitting all the Memorial Day sales this weekend, here's a little video to keep in mind. It's a mini-movie I made about the buying differences between men and women. I may start a series of these vignettes called "Wedded Blissters" - that looks at the blisters couples incur on their way to marriage bliss. Let me know if you like this first installment!

HAHAHA! Very funny, husband!
ReplyDeleteI think it's great! Another great phrase we women have for shopping is "Retail Therapy." It does take some time to really get those endorphins flowing, don't rush us! :)
Tor,
ReplyDeleteLove the video.
Shopping vs Buying......ha ha ha.

That was hillarious Tor...except, in our household, I find the roles often reversed. My husband insists on checking out all the furniture stores for just the right thing / deal. I'm not fond of shopping till ya drop. Explain that!? haha
ReplyDeleteBest line:

Hey Tor, this is funny, my wife and philosopher son laughed out loud. Mixing Keynsian economics and platonic - that's a riot.
ReplyDeleteThanks for Teen-faith download, and the tip on Blogrocket.
Excellent portrayal of what must be an age-old issue. I used to sell handbags. I would have to convince women, usually with a combination of how much they were saving on the original price and a bonus coupon. With me, I would just have to say "she'll love it."
ReplyDeleteLove all the references that he needs air to his head! As with Laura, my husband and I play opposite roles in this, too. He's also our decorator. (Shhhh..don't tell anyone.) ;)
ReplyDeleteHilarious! "the 70's called and want the word davenport back". I almost spewed my coffee. Hope you do more of these!
ReplyDelete@DME, thanks for the feedback!
ReplyDelete@Laura, perhaps you all constitute another iteration of a non-traditional family ;-)
ReplyDelete@Dang, I know...what's NOT to love about cool ranch Doritos???
ReplyDelete@Rob, I'm completely stoked by your post!!! If tough to tell what's going to hit or miss sometimes - thanks for making my day!!!!
ReplyDelete@Jamie, excellent perspective! Handbags...that must have been a tough racket?
ReplyDelete@Kellysinging, wow - you're a lucky gal. I wish I knew how to decorate - we'd save thousands on our upcoming interior re-design!
ReplyDelete@whatnot, thanks for the support - I'm going to try and bang out one of these every other week until they start getting stale, dumb or unfunny.
