[quote=Anonymous]Early September was our 4 year "nannyversary" and my mom boss gave me a lovely present (jewelry) worth of about $2500.
I didn't know the price (and wasn't interested in knowing as I find that very rude) BUT my husband told me I should bring back the present to the store so we could use the money for something useful.
Of course I disagreed and I thought we were fine ... until last night when I came home and my husband told me he did go to the store and got the $ ... My heart just dropped ....
We had a terrible argument and I haven't spoken to him since then.

Now the big problem is that I am invited (with my husband) to my mb's new housewarming party tomorrow and she mentioned smiling to me that I should wear the necklace, that she wanted how it looked on me etc.
I honestly don't know what to do ... I'm stuck, can't eat, am really mad at my husband (who already used most of the money - on useful things but still !!!)

My husband (who's American - I am Italian), says this is quite common to bring back a present you've been given at the store if you don't like it or want cash etc.
This is not something we do in my home country and I'm very scared my mom boss will be very disapointed in me ...

Can you help me ? thank you[/quote]
