I was thinking the same thing about myself....
My wife (GF then) and I used to go to Vegas 4-5 times a year.
We had an arguement about buying a Peter Lik photograph. They sit you in these perfectly lit rooms with special lighting focused strategically and they give you champagne while trying to sell you. SOOOOO, she fell for it. Wanted this print that would have been about $10k in the frame and size she wanted.
I told her if we wont anywhere near $10k she could buy it....we won nothing! So after some bickering back and forth we retreated to our room.
I figured Ill show her and proceeded to the Movado store in the mall at the Venettian. I bought the biggest ring they had in stock and left it on the bathroom vanity so she would see it when she woke up.
She was not amused, told me she didnt want a drunken pity engagement. We tried the return the ring but the manager asked if we would return the ring when we got home at our local Movado store so they would keep the sale and commission. We agreed but had to carry this ring home and not damage it until we got back to Jersey.
She got her ring regardless but we never did buy a Peter Lik.
Not that great, but def remember how hard it was to get from the room to the mall and back upstairs after a day of Long Island Ice Teas in the hot Vegas sun.
