When will our DH's learn ?

**mirandag819** · 06-05-2008, 08:23 AM

I have told DH over and over again do not buy something online without checking with me or looking on Sunshine rewards, and what does he do yesterday. Pays 59.99 to update our Norton software, the exact same thing I could have gotten on SR for 49.99 with an additional 10% cash back and 10% off. GRRRRRRRRRRRR he makes me so mad !

I saw someone else complaining about this same problem the other day.... why don't men listen ?

I am sorry. I have managed to train DH a little, when he bought his new $3000 computer a couple weeks ago, he did go through SR. Good thing or I would have had to kill him!

Did you seriously just ask us this question.

I'm thinking that most men have the "selective hearing" gene. My DH sure does!

You just need to teach them that all shopping goes through you. It works out really well for Mike and I. He tells me what he needs and I find it and take his credit card and ship it to me and we get the credit.

I just did the same thing - DH needed a new pair of sneakers and I logged onto SR, went to Shoebuy, picked out a pair and asked if he liked, he said yes, so I order them for him! I got the credit, he gets a new pair a shoes with very little effort, didn't even have to leave the house!
