Great video. Other options than showing your wife this video and letting her buy you one would be:

1. Invite her to go on a shopping spree and then just go get the drone yourself
2. Tell her your friend gave it to you
3. Just outright lie and tell her your M2 cost $100

Love your way of thinking but this would be what happens to me.

1. Invite her to go on a shopping spree and then just go get the drone yourself = she would check the bank balance then kill me.

2. Tell her your friend gave it to you = she wouldn’t believe me, check the bank balance & again kill me.

3. Just outright lie and tell her your M2 cost $100 = still wouldn’t believe me again, check the bank balance, yep you got it.. kill me.

When she asks how much things cost for my drone hobby I always round the price down to the nearest £/$ sooo she knows me to well, hence why she wouldn’t believe me on the questions above.

Sooooo the moral to this story is, don’t lie, you will get found out one way or another, sh## scared of the wife when it comes to money

Keep them sweet, pamper them, tell them how much you love um, that might work, well it might..

I know a few shops (reptile shops and ham radio shops in particular) that will happily do you a wife receipt for the amount you told her it cost.

I go with another option-either don’t tell her at all or pretend it’s something I’ve had for ages

Great video !
Brilliant idea to pay a lightly drunk girl off the streets a few $ to do the acting..

In my case, I told my wife I was gonna spend $300 on a phantom....but ended up buying the mavic for $1,000, thinking she might not even notice.

The bank called my wife minutes after the purchase to verify it wasn’t fraud. She started to say no, we didn’t spend $1,000 in china....but I was shaking my head yes, then the lightening began flashing in her eyes.

Your mileage may vary.

I view and watch items I want. they then keep popping up as adds on her facebook page. eventually she says are you buying one of these or what.

I knew I stayed single for a reason.

Is “it’s my money, I earned it and I will spend it however I want” not a valid excuse once you get married? Asking for a friend...

That might work if the drone buying spouse makes more money than the other. These days, many wives who hate drones make more money than their husbands.

Foot stomping might also work

i guess i am lucky my wife has her own income i have my pensions she is 8 years younger than me and is still at work we share expenses and what ever funds we have left are our own,she is not interested in drones in any shape or form and would not know if i got a different one yes i am very lucky

That’s just the wine talking.

Well there is a simple rule to keeping a happy marriage going.

1. You should find a woman that enjoys your hobbies with you,
2. You should find a woman that is a good cook,
3. You should find a woman that you can trust and share your feelings with,
4. You should find a woman that is fantastic in bed,
5. Last and the most important thing is that you must never, NEVER let these 4 women meet each other.

 

[Greg Smithski]

Tell her your mistress bought it for you because she really loves you. In a matter of seconds the price of the drone will be the least of your worries.

 

[old man mavic]

great post Cymruflyer you just described the perfect woman unfortunately they dont exist some of them exhibit most of those attributes at the start of the marriage but believe me it dont last long but even so after all this time i still think i am lucky to have the wife i have bless her

PS must remember to delete my history in case she ever sees this

YES! Don't you hate that

I view and watch items I want. they then keep popping up as adds on he facebook page. eventually she says are you buying one of these or what.

It’s easier to ask for forgiveness than asking for permission

My wife bought me a Mavic Pro for Christmas, and now she wants one for our son! Sadly, she refuses to fly any of my old quads, even though she's perfectly capable.

My beautiful wife bought me my M2P as well as my 7.8 crystal sky!!! She got special treatment that night. Lol

 

[Cymruflyer]

I try to be good to my wife too, as an example when we walk by jewelry shops and she sees a ring in the window and says to me... let's go buy that, I listen to her and we go right by that ring.

My good lady wife bought my M2P for our 35th wedding anniversary, CS & mount are for Christmas. She does support me with my hobby, but like my post #3, it’s all right for her to buy them for me but I wouldn’t dare go out & buy without her permission.

She does alright out me also

Roll on the 25th
