Most people find shopping a big part of visiting Florida,
The more you go, the more you want!!
What do you spend your money on when on Holiday??

The best thing I had bought for me last June was an engagement ring from Hezlberg Diamonds, it's only taken him 19 years!

You should have dropped a few more hints Kaz!!
You know us men can be a bit thick at times!!
Alothough they do say, slowly slowly catchy monkey!!
So when the Wedding?? Hopefully not another 19 years! 2023!!

Blott there was not enough options [lucky]
And as it was in the Villa Guest area I didn't want to put that one in!!
[msncry]
Maybe I should post another one in that area with the following options
How do you spend your money?
On the Villa
Upgrading the villa
Buying things for the villa
Replacing things in the Villa
Some of the above
All of the above

I had to vote for the 'Mixture'. I like to eat out while the wife likes to shop for herself AND others (with her money, of course :)).

Hope you declared it Kaz[msneek]
Crikey a tshirt out of Walmart is my treat these days[msnwink]
Well they were very good in the shop, they reduced it by $7995 to $5 so when I wore it through customs I didn't think they would want to know.
The wedding should be in aproximately 30 years time, if J's past behaviour is anything to go by! House in UK, 3 children, Villa in FL
and then the ring.
He like to take things slowly, he says it took him this long to see if he could train me..............cheek

I am staying quiet here about what I spend on incase Mr CDV comes on!
I will give you a clue, "you are not taking all those shoes and bags for 5 days are you Jacq"? He may have a point as I have laid out 30 pairs of shoes and 10 bags, this is for the trip this week and our Xmas trip, he still cannot see why I need so many.......... goodness it's party season!!!!!!!!!!

I was 8 [msnscared]when i visited flordia last, so i spent it on teddy bears [msnsmile2]
I buy a mixture of stuff, including towels, bedding, kitchen utensils as well as clothes. My husband however buys car spares! He has 2 Pontiacs at home and likes to bring his spares for servicing etc. home with him. We have brought back a wing mirror, gas struts and a disk rotor in the past. Have no idea what these looked like on the Xray!
It has to be eating out for us as we never eat in the villa, can’t be bothered cooking when I am on holiday.
