I got a $50 gift card from work for working last saturday. I'm thinking about not telling the little woman and spending it all on tractors. I don't know if that is a good idea or not.
 
Including the wife would definitely be a noble gesture, but from the pics you've shown (before AND after!), you most definitely earned that bonus! Personally, I think there should have been a 1 or 2 in front of that 50
 
That's an idea. Where and when is it this year. Thought about maybe passing through on a visit to my daughters.
 
My wife and I have everything categorized as either his or it's hers in some things are ours she gets a $50 bonus it belongs to her if I get one and belongs to me that way of thinking has always work for us
 
Had an EX....B.. that couldn't get that through her thick head. Took enough money but am glad that is over.
 
With so many different ideas, why don't I just give you my address and you can send it to me. Problem solved. LOL. Easy Peasey.
 
Think about it, wife feels bad (if she finds out) or tractors feel bad. Hmmmmmmmmmm
 
if your wife has a problem with you spending 50 bucks for something you did for something you want its time for a new wife or blow on flowers for the wife as preparation for your next gift. :)
 
I am with Ron, buy a tool that you don't have, but might need sometime. Can't beat the right tool for the right job.
 
You just saved them THOUSANDS of dollars in fines and likely a lawsuit when it broke in half on the road. Not to mention all the labor they saved by not having to take it to a trailer repair shop that would have to charge at least $100 per hour and likely not do as good of work. My 2 cents.
Yes, I too have gone above and beyond for my employers with little to no appreciation. What are we to do ?
Spend it as you see fit because you EARNED IT !
 
Simple.. spend it on something for yourself.. stick it in your shop or wherever and let it age and collect dust that way when you use it..."oh Ive had this awhile".

My hay business money gets put in a NON WIFE Place.. or wouldnt be there for repairs, upgrades, tools, operating expense for upcoming year...gas, oil, twine unless I did this. Wife and I share checking, savings etc. which both our daily job checks go to.. Not to say that I havent pulled some from hay/farm account to help and vice ver
 
Buy something for yourself.

BTW, when I was in the Marine Corps, I knew a Navy CPO who had been on flight duty for a number of years, and then quit flying. At a party one evening, another CPO asked him how he liked not being on flight duty, and commented, "I suppose you miss that flight pay".

The Chief's wife asked, "Honey, what's flight pay?" He'd been rat-holing all of his flight pay while they lived off of his regular Chief's pay. Three days later, they were driving a new car.
 
Will they take it at the liquor store ? A full shop fridge is a good thing. Or maybe a couple of bottles of wine for those romantic dinners. ;^)
