“Hey, buddy, we’re on a BUDGET now, don’t ya know? Get with the program, will ya?”
No, you say, “Thank you honey, what a sweet thing to do.”
And then you wait for a few days to check the online banking to see how much they cost…
UPDATE: My flowers lasted for eight days. Mr. A explained that he called the flower place and said he wanted to spend about $35. The lady explained there was a $10 delivery charge. He was okay with that. By the time it was over and done with, she was charging $64 to our account. He felt sheepish by then, but went with it. He’s a good guy, my Mr. A.
