I totally got this girl preggers and this will help a lot with my exit strategy.

"See those flowers?"

Give her flowers today and a support payment every month for the next 18 years.

:music: It's only just begun, :music:
 
Be very careful on this one, I ordered one of the plant bulb/planter centerpiece things for my wife for Baby Momma's Day next month last night, this morning I woke up to a charge from "EMI Encore Marketing" and I called to find out wtf they are, ,and I somehow managed to signup for their service as part of my proflowers order! I'm usually pretty good about avoiding these piggy-backed membership scams, er, deals, but this one totally slipped by me. A short google for "EMI Encore Marketing" was fun reading since the 4th link down was ripoffreport.

So just a short warning to be vigilant else you too may get signed up for a service you didn't want ($14.95 per month "savings club" thing, yeah right how about I save the 14.95 and call it a day instead?).

If you go all the way in the checkout (email address, etc), but close the page without completing your transaction, they usually email you a better deal.

Worked that way on V-day. Try it.

Great trick, they offered me the same deal with 10% off and a free vase that way.

Duh... that's why u get TWO dozen roses.....
Make sure the names/addresses do not get mixed up.

If so problem is easily solved - no wife or GF
