I buy premium brands cause I find they fit better and last longer... she doesn't understand why. I get it the worst with sporting goods though.
Of course, when its jewelry or those overpriced lululemon workout tops I have to blow money on... thats a good use of money.

I'm sure my girlfriend could come up here and type out a laundry list of the stuff I spend money on that she doesn't understand:
" you want to spend how much on a TV? It will cover half of our wall"
" How much did that steak cost? YOu still have to cook it. Jesus, we could have just gone out for dinner"
"Why are you buying a new car when you have a perfectly good 1991 Sunbird already"
"you need professional quality goalie pads why?..." To give her credit on this last one, she is a Canuck fan, so she didn't have an appreciation for how valuable a set of goalie pads can be for a goalie...until last season. Peraps she'll see my point of view on this one now.
