[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 7753606, member: 105098"]I did this, what happened? I never got coins again from Mom. Same thing, Home shopping. She used to do the tv shopping shows, still does publishers clearing house and yada yada mail order stuff. I'd say as long as she's buying a gift, it's her money and she can spend it however she likes. If she's paying too much for the item, you can say something like I did, but this is going to lead to her possibly feeling dumb for spending too much, and not necessarily see it as you are looking out for her, and rather than say anything to you, decide just not to do it anymore since you won't like it. Again, it's her money, maybe she's overpaying for whatever it is, but it makes her happy to make you happy, I kind of wish I hadn't said anything, Hindsight is 20/20.[/QUOTE]
