Honestly, the ring i bought was worth 9k, but I only spent a lil less than 5k. I bought it from
Blue Nile I had coupon codes from
Save with blue nile coupons from RetailMeNot and stalked the prices for the right sale.
I didn't ship it to NYC because the tax was ridiculous. So i sent it to my fams in the DMV area. And scooped it up later.
I also got the insurance which is only about $100/year.
I should have bought the matching wedding ring that goes with it, but I cheaped out. I would've eventually saved an extra grand if i bought it all together.
In my budget, instead of going for a larger rock, I went for a better clarity, which sometimes I regret.
I also regret getting the platinum band. Go for the white gold, no one cares, no one asks
3 rings breh, apparently the first anniversary you have to get an eternity band, and your shawty rocks all 3 together.
