What'd you get to hold you over before you got upgrade?

MonkeyPie Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,614 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 4/23/2008	LOL I got a bunch of crap, most of which I had to take back before I sold my diamond. Dual wedding bands, u-prong with princess cuts, a couple necklaces, and an asscher-cut rapsberry pink spinel, which I thankfully still have!

Kelli Ideal Rock Total Posts: 4,581 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 5/27/2008	I'm in that boat now, but not for an "upgrade". I just wanna buy something SO SO bad and I don't have any money at the moment. (Arrrggh!!) I make silly little purchases like a 4 mm rose gold plain band to wear on my middle finger, or other things along those lines. I'm currently debating a new setting for an ugly ring I had made a while back too, but I've been debating that for a while.

But I'm not getting an upgrade (unless hubby completely changes his mind, not likely, and honestly since my reset, I'm very content). If you get a prong set halo, you can always put a colored stone in it when you do upgrade.

Phoenix Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,029 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 10/5/2006	Don't do it!! Better to save up and wait for the real upgrade. I bought a bunch of smaller items, like earrings, bracelets, pendants, rings with smaller diamonds etc. The money I wasted!.

Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn

I wasted so much money on mini upgrading, new settings etc. If I had kept that money I would have been able to get the diamond size I really wanted.

Man, too bad I didn't think of that when I had a solitaire!

babysteps Ideal Rock Total Posts: 597 Last Post: 8/18/2009 Member Since: 2/13/2008	For what it's worth, I always find that wearing just my plain gold band or my rolling ring for a couple of weeks puts the 'oomph' back into my bling when I trot it out again - and no $$$ spent in the meantime

Irishgrrrl Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,338 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 6/3/2008	Hmmmm . . . since I got my e-ring, I have gotten a three-stone necklace, a tennis bracelet, a pair of princess-cut studs, and a Beverley K eternity band. And I still don't have my upgrade! LOL! ~Emm "Goodness had nothing to do with it, dearie." ~ Mae West

It could mean a difference in 1-2 months if I get something in between. Oh but how I love lots of pretty things. blech
