For those of you who have yet to dive into the black abyss of faux shopping fun, allow me to offer a few tips as I am heading into round two. 1) This IS shopping. Don’t be fooled by the name guys, this isn’t a spring football or little league sign up. This is like Christmas shopping minus the line ups and Santa’s scotch laden breath. 2) Be honest. If you don’t think you will get any use out of a bright pink vase the size of your beer fridge, say something. Your bride to be will appreciate the honesty. 3) Be realistic. The $7,000 BBQ with a life supply of meat might not make as much sense as a new fridge or dishwasher that will help you to complete your home. 4) Have fun. It really isn’t all that bad, if I am openly going for round 2, you guys can do this. Have a game plan going in, communication is key here boys. Lastly 5) Be sure to be the one with the scanner, when she isn’t looking scan that drill set you’ve been dreaming of for years. This is fun right? BB
