No ring for you! Jan 13

Last night M and I ran by the jewelry store on our way home to pick up my wedding band.  We walk into the store, the girl says she will go and grab the ring and we start to wonder around.  A few minutes later she comes and finds us.  She takes the box, opens it up and hands it to me.  I look and…….it’s the WRONG ring.  I look at the ring and look at her and say “this is the wrong ring.”  I begin telling her what the ring was supposed to look like and we all head over to find the original ring I looked at.  Once we find it she agrees it is not correct and goes to find the girl who sold us the ring to see what happened.

The girl we bought the ring from comes out and explains the designer sent the wrong style number.  My ring was like EDxxx and the one they sent was ADxxx.  She said she would contact the designer and get the correct ring sent out.

I was a little disappointed that my ring was incorrect.  But after seeing the one that I love, I knew it would be worth the extra wait.  Plus we still have 4 months (to the day 😉 ) left.

While we were there I told M we needed to look for his ring.  After wondering around and looking in case after case another sales girl came to help us.  M told her what he would like in a ring and what he didn’t want.  With all of that she suggested we look at Palladium rings.  They are durable like platinum and naturally white in color yet they are a fraction of the price.  Plus they were all super lightweight.

The sales girl pulled a few rings, M and I both suggested a few and before I knew it M had 3 in the running.  He continued to go back and forth between the 3 and then narrowed it down to 2.  We liked both and I told him that it was his choice since he would have to wear it FOREVER!  🙂  A few minutes later he picked one.  Aaaaahhhhhhhh!  Really?!?!?  I was very excited that he actually picked one and said this is it, let’s get it.  I really figured he would say he wanted to think about it but he made a decision.

I really like the ring he picked out.  I like that he really likes it.  The price was good and it’s a ring that he can keep forever.  It can be engraved and sized if needed.

Now we are waiting for his ring to come in and my correct ring to come back.  I guess there will be another ring post in 4 to 6 weeks.  🙂
