Ok what does your better half collect?

Ok we know alot of what we collect but does your better half collect? and what do they collect. I know what my wife puts up with and I have tried to make here collection grow too. I just battled it out on ebay for 1 of her Bday presents, and I hope it gets here by then.

Mine collects Barbie Dolls :), Seemed like a good fit when I met her, lol

Thats a very cool sign Charlie:cool:it's a great birthday present for the wifey:thumbup:

Mine collects my cash,for every dollar I spend on Reds I have to give the same amount back in cash:sad:

Needless to say she has no idea on what I really spend on these things:laugh::laugh:so lets keep that a secret guys:sneaky2:

Rick

Ammo against me mainly, but when I'm not on her S#!* list its salt and pepper shakers from the 30s through the 50s.

Jewelry boxes from around the planet. Most are small (actually, about the size of a Hotwheel!), and some really are quite beautiful. Handmade. She also collects cameras, antique and modern.

Antique perfume bottles, mostly from the 20's to the 50's

My soul.

Shoes... and more Shoes...

Oh and resentment...

Mine dosent really have a serious addiction to collecting anything like I do, but she does have a small colection of antique sewing machines, and she has recently picked up collecting the really old glass Christmas ornamants. I'm just glad she puts up with all my BS.....LOL She's always there to listen about a car or color....LOL Gotta love em!!!!!!:001_smile:

Anything from Target or Walmart. And JoAnn's Fabrics. And Barnes and Noble. And McDonalds and Wendy's.

Have gotten the wifey a few and I always look at them but the prices are usally a bit high and would take away from my wifes other persuits.

Cool topic Charlie, the women in our lives are pretty understanding to let us obsess over these little toy cars. We are truly blessed.

Um I wouldnt sped to much if I were you. LOL. Guns have always made me look but never went through with getting 1.

Yeah, fun hobby. Can get expensive quick . . .

Jus porn. When she's done with that, Barbie's by the 100s.
(Please don't email, call, or text her about the porn comment, as she a really good aim. And jus today, she told me that the reason her grandfather has to sit in special chairs is because her grandmother took acception to an act/word of his and shot in the rear with a shotgun many years ago. I did ask who owns the shotgun today, she declined to answer).:crying:

My gal is not a collector, but she does have her obsessions. In addition to me (stop laughing :angry:) she's passionate about coffee (REALLY passionate), our kids and her faith. I definitely 'married up'! :001_wub:

My wife has a taste for vintage Disney cels and rather expensive pocket books. As long as I keep my mouth shut about them she says nothing about the parade of boxes coming to the house!

Doug

Growing up in so. cal. I'm also a huge disney fan. WTG!!!!! on that rare collectable. Bob

My wife collects animals. Dogs, cat, snakes, lizards, birds, and a bunch of other I can't even remember.

Ed

Grey hairs that I continue to give her....................

hehehehehehe. :D Just Kidding. My grandaddy is the same way with his coffee. One of his addictions sort of. He keeps trying to convert me to a coffee lover...maybe someday I'll cave.

My wifey goes for shoes and lots of them...and Currier and Ives dishes and other assorted antique glassware. She has quite the impressive collection.

Love the posts, especially the comic relief ones. :laugh: My honey loves a lot of things: Precious Moments, angel figurines of all sizes & shapes, things with hearts (I guess that's why I was added to her collection? :001_tt1:), Custom Corvette redlines (yup, blame me for that one :clap:), & any antique girlie type items.

calories...

Ouch!

Ummm guess we should start a RIP thread for ole Turnip head.:ohmy: LOL

Zip Zero Nada.She really does not collect anything.I wish she did as buying gifts for her is terrible.

Coca Cola items. Although her collection is much smaller than mine.

Coffee, Coffee, Coffee.... I don't like the smell or taste of coffee. Cats and cat items. I'm not really a cat person. Crafts, which she does very well. Needle kits and Puzzles.

Well being single. My better half is me. So it's redlines baby Redlines.:cool::walkman::walkman::walkman::walkman:

Doesn't collect much but used to collect this crappy looking ceramic artware junk (MacKenzie Childs), now she collects cameras and lenses unfortunately and I'll predict in the near future she'll be collecting alimony!:angry:

Colin

Mine collects jackpots on slots machines. I have never seen anybody that does as good as her.
I was up in the room one night at a casino watching a movie when she told me to get down here now. When I found her she had a silver tray in front of her
with $18,000.00 in $100.00 dollar bills. It was a $25.00 slot and she was playing times 2 and hit it on the second spin, for a total investment of $100.00 I told her congrats and said let's see you double it and went back to the room to finish the movie.
Never called me back so I guess she didn't double.:(

Greg

Funny guys. My father in law likes coke stuff and I wish my wife collected jackpots. We went to the horse races last year and I said 1 horse and wife said another so we bet on her horse and mine won.

Mine collects NOTHING and thats the problem, she doesn't understand the addition! She does get sucked into helping me find stuff every once in awhile.

Terry

Ha mine always looks for me but has no idea what is what.


She loved the sign but it got here today a day late.

Mine collects cats. We have 9 cats 2 dogs a chinchilla and 20 koi fish. Anything on the shopping channel. Was collecting old perfume bottles.

Mine collects purses, romance novels and paid bills... boxes of paid bills... years worth. She was into Cobalt glass, but she ran out of pieces she likes. She collected dolls for a while, until she figured out that if they sit out the puppy get them. She had quite a collection of outdated cell phones. Mostly now she collects ways to get on my last damn nerve.

Jeff!
