Don't take this the wrong way, but it's your money, I presume? You can do whatever you want with that (and you're not married yet).

This is one of the reasons DH & I keep most our finances separate. (We do have each other's names on our accounts, just in case of emergency.) We have money taken out of our pay for investments/retirement; then we split the bills; the rest is our to play with. As long as he can pay his share of the investments and the bills, I don't say anything about his "toys", nor does he about mine (i.e., JEWELRY! :roflmfao:).
Please understand that I'm not trying to tell you how to run your life, but, as a married person, I would strongly suggest you work out who pays for what and how you're going to use both your finanace before you get married. That saves a lot of headaches later--trust me! It's not a fun conversation, but it should be talked about seriously before marriage.

BTW, you got a STEAL on those watches! Enjoy them!

No offense taken. Yes it's my money but we are trying to save for a wedding and to buy a house..so he doesnt approve of me spending almost 2k+ within a week. Other then that, we already talked about it and we are going to have a joint account and i will have an "allowance" each month..which i am okay with because i know no limit.

"I know no limit"?
sounds confusing for allowance per se.
Your new Michelle watch is lovely and price is really great for a diamond watch. Enjoy it! Great deal!

i mean we tslked about it and we will both set a limit on my spending once we are married and the limit will be based on where we are financially at the time.

For right now, i promised not to spend a lot but there was no limit. Obviously the less i spend the more ill save up as a downpayment for a house. Clearly he is not happy with me spending almost 2k in a week.

I'm not in trouble though, he got over it pretty quickly :D

It seems like I go YEARS without finding a really sweet deal LOL. I have better luck finding so-so deals than outright steals I think. But anytime something's on sale, I feel better about buying it because I still didn't have to pay full price!
