When you're in line with the wife, and she's buying, say " get your purse out dear, they're gonna want money". You'll find out what a withering stare is.....
Women never, ever get the money holder out until they hear the figure, why is that?

because we have so much damn crap in our wallets we are afraid we'll loose something if we take it out early!!!!


and you guys forgot to mention about how we need to obsessively double check to make sure we put the change/credit card or checkbook away in its proper place before walking away!!!!!!!!

Arrow not me

if i am with the wife and i am going to pay
i use either cash ...already in my hand
or swipe my bank card......... but it never goes
quite smooth enough to suit her ... EVER
and the counting out of money (omg) has to be PERFECT

so usually i bail !! after unloading the shopping cart
and bring the automobile around for a quick exit.

that way, she is the one to blame for anything over -> charged

isn't that the truth. you forgot to mention the surprise look when the clerk say how much they owe like they were going to get it for free.
