Cabelas is trying to ruin my marriage. In the past week alone, Dale has received the 5 catalogs pictured. Five. 5. Cinco. Yikes.
I cringe each time one shows up in our mailbox because I know he'll find something he "needs". Recently it was a new scope for his rifle, which turned into new camo seat covers for his truck as well. A few months ago it was hog bait, a crawfish trap, and new fishing lures (including a single lure that was like $15 alone). Earlier this year it was a hand held GPS unit to take hunting so he wouldn't get lost in the woods. I could go on and on about guns, decoys, etc. but you get the picture.
I'm sure that I just don't understand the "need" behind these things, and that's my problem. I know if I were to ask my guy friends and family, they'd be able to justify the importance of said purchases. However, I make plenty of my own "need" purchases so my panties aren't in too big of a bunch. haha.
Alright, maybe Cabelas catalogs ruining my marriage is kind of an exaggeration, but 5 catalogs in one week is not. It's ridiculous. The only upside to receiving so many printed items in one week is that I know there is a graphic designer out there with some job security at least. :)
Nice positive thinking on the graphic designer part. :) ...... I think MANY would agree with you on the ridiculous amount of magazines sent to everyone! We get many cabela's and many other unsolicited -- and even where I work we get an UNBELIEVABLE amount of soliciting magazines ..... and I pitch an unbelievable amount. Such a waste in paper and postage.
