[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much over?

Technically if each individual piece was within the limit, she did nothing wrong.[/quote]

OP here. It was $6600. Most of the items were exceeding the $500. I’m just annoyed she did not let me know about a purchase this large. [/quote]

I’d be super pissed for a lot of reasons. Money would be one. That’s a ridiculous amount. Second would be violation of our agreement. Third would be excluding me from participating in decorating the baby’s room. [/quote]

OP here. This may sound bad but I don’t care about decorating the nursery. I will set it up but I could care less what the decor looks like. Same with our home. I let her pick it all because I don’t care about those things. [/quote]

Well, she does. I'm sure there are things you care about that cost money.

I looked up Larkin cribs, etc. They are mid-range; you can get what she bought at Pottery Barn. Not over the top at all, given that you admit you could afford them. [/quote]

OP here. Maybe I’m naive or cheap but I’ve looked at cribs online and most were half the cost of the Larkin crib.

It’s also annoying these items won’t be here for months and we paid nearly $800 in taxes and delivery charges.  [/quote]

That is pottery barn. What people should do is get a credit card to get the points because then if you buy future furniture, you don’t feel as bad paying that delivery charge because it’s basically covered by points.[/quote]
