OT: Replacement wedding ring for me

[preacher_dawg]

As many of you guys seem pretty wise, I somehow lost my titanium wedding ring (I think one of our 2 year old twins lost it.) I really liked the ring, especially because it had crosses engraved on it, not in a flashy way, but just enough where I could see it when i looked at it closely. Anyway, I need to find an inexpensive ring, at least until I can find my original. I am in the Tupelo area a lot if anyone knows a good store.

Get one of those rubber/silicone rings. A lot of guys now wear those b/c they want to cheat on their wife**

Tungsten rings. I have one after I lost mine duck hunting but I just ordered a silicone ring to wear at work so I don’t rip my finger off in an accident.

You can get a reasonably priced tungsten or titanium one (and find a pattern if you still want one) at Overstock.com
Saw what looked exactly like my ring at a jewelry store for just over 3X what I paid.

Are titanium and tungsten rings the thing now since gold is so expensive?

Stainless steel ring off amazon. Like $10.

Yea and they look pretty close to the real deal. I lose mine all the time. It's good it costs me $20 to replace instead of $1000.

Even though DS thinks I’m a cheater**, I wear a silicone ring because I took off my real one every time I worked in the yard, hunted, fished, went to the camp, etc. Also, I took it off every night before bed because of arthritis in my hand. Hurt like hell for some reason. You can get them at just about any sporting goods store or on amazon.

The new silicon rings break about every 12-24 months. Buy a stock of them if you go that route.

If a simple gold band for a man costs that much, I hate to think what just the gold part for a woman's engagement/wedding ring combination costs. And it seems like it wouldn't be "right" to buy a super expensive diamond and put it on a titanium band. Most men couldn't care less about what their band is made of so I suppose it's only the men that get the cheapos.

Bought a 4-Pack for $10. Good to go.

Huh, maybe I should look into this. My wife gets aggravated because I never wear mine - I take it off any time I'm working or exercising, and usually forget where I put it for a few days. I'd wear it all the time if I didn't have to worry about losing it or ripping my finger off.

Get a tattoo of a ring. Never have to worry about losing it.

My tungsten was either $200 or $300 so it wasn't dirt cheap. I got tungsten because I work in an environment where I was worried I’d scare the gold up. The tungsten is indestructible.

If you're doing some cheating, you better go with the full rubber glove... I don't see a rubber ring keeping you out of trouble much.***

Following - because this will happen to me one day. My fingers are like Vienna Sausages, and if they get wet the ring slides off. I have to take it off to wash my hands, sleep, yard work, foreplay, etc.

 

[PineGroveBully]

Probably gonna need pics of the wife before I could give you sound advice***

 

[punterjoe]

I have a tungsten with the crosses. I've been thinking about one of the rubber ones though. Someone needs to make a maroon one to match GameDay attire.

 

[Philly Dawg]

A basic gold band doesn’t cost that much unless it’s some sort of name brand. You can get one for $300-500 bucks.

Thanks for that link. Ordered the Mossy Oak one and a custom one with a cross. Had never heard of that company.
