    That mall looks similar too ours.......You are definintly speaking the truth. I refuse too go shopping with my wife for the sake of our marriage. I also put a limit on her spending sprees. Found that helpful. P.s. Why are you buying pants at the gap.

    lets all be responsible! shoot a criminal! Remember 0% of firearms pull there own trigger!

    I think the womans time may be off by a few hours?
    If I take my wife to the mall, it's at least a 6 hour ordeal!
    If I take my wife and my 9 year old daugther to the mall, it turns into an all day affair!!! Not to mention, I become the Pack Mule



    Of course I can play the piano, as long as it has pedals!

    You should hear my wife when we go to Lowes, don't know why but she gets mughty impatient and mean when we go there. On the ohter hand, we do 90% of our shopping at Walmart and the good thing about that is, they have a couple MAN sections and a couple girly sections so while the wife and daughter are checking out the latest fads in clothes I can be scoping out the sporting goods, hardware, automotive and electronics. Most of the time she has to come looking for me instead of me looking for her!

    women don't spend less BlackRoses, they just spend less, MORE OFTEN. We buy guns and tools and such, but, we can resell them. Not that we don't appreciate the time you ladies put into looking so good, just a different way of expressing ourselves I guess. If we spent that much time and effort in looking just right, well, we may be considered a little light in the loafers. Soooo, we buy things that make tremendous noise and cut off our extremities. Yeah, now that makes perfect sense. LOL

    as TIM the toolman would say,......

    A great rifle with a junk scope,....is junk.

    BlackRoses, you may spend less time & money shopping than your paramour, but we've already established you are a very special woman. The two in my family spend more time finding any single garment in any single store than I've ever spent on a single visit to a gun store. And I gotta go w/ JustC on this one - while they *may* spend less in a given expedition than I (I've the bills to dispute it in most instances), they sure as heck do it far more often. That map is pretty accurate for our household, also; if I'm roped into shopping, I always try to bring at least three magazines . . . usually I can read at least two of them.

    All right guys I think you are all going overboard here.

    I thought the mall was just a big gun store?

    I realize that many women think that shopping is the in thing to do but did you guys ever think that if you went with your wives you might slow down her spending?

    As for me give me a gun store - that's the only place to spend money.+
