Finnaly got me a PS3

Today i got the Newsletter from "Bart Smit" (Game Store in Belgium/Netherlands) in my mail about a ps3 40Gb offer for €250.
Didn't give it much more attention then, nice, maybe, but there's other things in life (like my wife and kids)

When i got home from work i was a bit sleeping in front of TV, when my wife woke me and told Bart Smit had a nice offer on a BR player
and if i wanted one i had to say so cause the offer was limmited, half asleep i said i saw the PS3 offer, not really full aware of my mind, sleeping abit more.

about an hour later when i'm fully awake i told her about the PS3 offer from BS and she goes like:
What do you think i'm trying to tell you the last few hours! (i went like, dunno did you said anything?) Anyway, she said, the offer was gone and there was a replacement offer -> PS3 40Gb + 2 free games (Ratchet & Clank - tools of destruction and Uncharted - Drake's fortune) for €300. and if i wanted i could buy it.

So my face goes like (WTF is she saying, I CAN BUY A PS3) So i jumped from my chair, telling: I really can buy a PS3, that's ok with you? she goes like, yeah, you can, but it will be mostly used for movies and it will stand in the livingroom, not your gaming room, so i went ASAP to my PC, ordered the damned PS3 online (I did i mention, it was an online offer only) payed the whole thing (€302.99 with shipping included).

All this before she would change her mind! héhé

All i want to say:
When you're wife tells you, you can buy something you like, Just do it ASAP, do NOT delay it, cause the change is high she will change her mind :D
I can buy alot of stuff without telling her beforehand, but stuff over €150 euro i ussually discuss before i purchase with my wife.
She is not the kind of woman to tell me i can't buy the stuff, cause she herself likes pc/electronics stuff, but the PS3 was a no go and i really didn't care
cause i'm not really a PS3 fan, but i do like Blue Ray movies, so the PS3 gaming is just a nice add-on to me.

(Ow, and i know my wife, she can sometimes say so, but when you delay it, she can say the opposite or have her doubs about the purchase and delays it or doesn't want it.)

    Are you near sea/salt water, or in general they just don't last. Sounds like if you driving a mercedes, you need a garage. I get snow n ice here so nothing worse than clearing that shit off at 6am rushing to get to work.
