Am I being cheap??
I intend on buying FI's wedding band in the next few days. I've gone into Jared a few times and noticed some nice rings for FI, a couple were tungsten for about $250 and up. The other day I went into JcPenney and noticed the SAME rings for $95!!! I don't want to seem like I'm being cheap when it comes to buying his ring, but $95 sounds a lot better than $250....lol What price range are you staying in for your FI's wedding band?

I wouldn't think you are being cheap at all!!
Lucky you! My FI picked out a damn 1 carat band and emailed it to me....le sigh...He works for the governor so he won't need two rings but damn this ring is like &1700....I wonder if I can find it at JCP or Bluenile....hmmm..I may take my but to the Goldman in New Orleans and get his ring LMAO! He would kill me though

Post a picture of it and the specifics and I'm sure us Google Queens can help find that bad boy cheaper.

That's exactly where I got his. Penney's!
[QUOTE]If the ring is the same...Go for it. You could also get a Tungsten ring for less than that. There was a promotion for men's rings, if you used the promo code "brides" you got a $250+ ring for free, just paid for shipping. Anyone know if that is still going on? I already got FI his ring but I forgot the website.

The code FINALLY expired in Feb. I was trying to buy B a new one. But I found him a Tungsten ring on eBay for like $15!!! Why pay more when you can pay less?! lol<div>

Girl, why pay more if it's the exact same ring? It's like buying cereal at Tops when you can get it at Walmart for $3 less. I say go for it!
I spent a little over $500 on FI's ring but that was just the best price we could find after 60% off and tax.

Pahahahahahahahaha! Not the NO LIMIT chains!
@ OP get the ring on sale, girl. You are not being cheap.
I don't think there is anything wrong with taking advantage of a sale. I spent 2000 on H's ring and I had a promotional coupon for %15 off anything in the store.
