    Default Just as I promised my wife...this Zundapp came up

    I just told my wife I don't have a problem - I can quit... just need to get the 431g, the Pfaffs 31 and 130 and the two new ones over there sorted and lined up with the others - oh, those two? they are just part machines, I'll throw them away afterwards and get everything tidied up and out of the way, you'll see, honey - no more machines, I promise!

    And this came up. Can't upload screen dumps, hope the url works

    This is going to get expensive. App. $175 for the machine is one thing (I have it on hold) but a bunch of flowers and cooking dinner isn't going to get me out of this one.

    What do you think of the machine?

    That is what we all say, did she believe you?lol There always seems to be another one I have to have lurking around waiting for me. One thing I can say, that is a beauty! I had just seen one of those somewhere on the web but it wasn't as pretty as this one! Did you get it yet? Sounds like you are going to have to think of something special, how about chocolate?

    Yep, I think you're going to be in the dog house but that machine looks like it will be worth it. That is a very cool one. I'm in the dog house too, so you'll have company. I'm supposed to be getting rid of machines for an upcoming move into a new house. Nobody wants to help me move 50+ sewing machines. Today I was watching an auction to be sure I didn't get out bid at the last minute and got caught. My son is not happy with me.

    It's such a pretty green machine. Tell her it could be worse, you could collect and restore antique cars like my DH does!!

    Give her a gift certificate or card or flat out cash to do with what she wants. Works for my husband.

    I love everything about that one! I think that one might be worth the argument. Just don't make a habit of it and you should be fine.

    It's very cool but too rich for my blood! I stick with the deals and steals, they are easier to "approve" and keep me out of the dog house!
