do they still give you those cheap ass plastic rings in Cracker Jack boxes ?
dump her Merc, or else start calling her by someone else's name. Money or no.. there's no excuse for something as impersonal as what she did. No ring for that one unless it comes out of a candy box

Noone has brought up how expensive a braclet. That MD coupon could be worth more.
And no chick should be asking for a ring.

Could be worse, could be nigh constant, "hints" about a ring " at least 2 karats".
Yeah, that didn't happen.

Maybe she didn't know what you wanted? Maybe that's all she had? Maybe it was a joke. Don't dump her though. My god, the romantics around here. I kind of agree with this, don't jump-to-the-dump. What bothers me about the scenario though is that traditionally the poor girls who are thoughtful will buy the three nicest things at the Dollar Tree and gift wrap them individually. There's a way to be poor yet classy, and she kind of fails that test. Plus asking for a ring (WAY too much loaded symbolism there anyway) or any kind of jewelry after a coupon-thingy gift is radically inappropriate. I still don't entirely understand what her gift actually was--was it the kind of Grimace/Hamburglar Gift Certificate Books I used to get in my stocking a quarter century ago?

Gave my GF a nice looking braclet for X-mas. She gave me a Mcdonalds flyer coupon. *Waits for the WTF looks.* Then in a letter she wants me to take her to get a ring. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa oooooookkkkkkkk. take her to one of those little 25 cent vending machines plop the quarters down in the slot, twist the knob and get the little ufo out of the tunneland give a frikking ring.... 50 cents at most.

The onion ring thing=hilarious.
And I've experienced something similar with an ex-girlfriend of mine. I once blew six hundred bucks on this girl for a really expensive ring, and she was STILL disappointed with it. I also add that this was a month after I blew two hundred bucks on her for huging Hello Kitty stuff that she really, REALLY wanted. My following birthday gift? Oh yeah...blue jeans. Not only that, but it was also accompanied by a "I don't like the way you dress, here's something to get you started" speech. Yeah.

Wow...I feel your pain man.
I bought this dude I was close friends with these awesome hockey seats valued at 80 bucks total...told him he could bring anybody he wanted with the 2 seats & it didn't even have to be me.
He bought me the Book of Mormon with a scripture highlited for me to read.

"I bought her a very nice ring. She said, "I don't like this ring!" I said, "You picked it out, it's my fault you can't operate that little crane better! I said, "well, what do you want?" she said, "Something crazy and expensive that I don't even need." so I signed her up for radiation treatments"

Beat her within an inch of her life then when you're in prison you can find a better girlfriend.

a same thing happend with a mate once.
I went on Holiday and decided to bring him something back but as there was nothing i decided to pay for his ticket to see X-Men & a burger king meal.
The next time he went on holiday he bought another mate (Wanker) something back and i didn't get a thing, I didn't want anything (I'm not like that), but getting something for someone else and just ignoring me just made me feel annoyed .
Hell a simple "I tried to find something but i couldn't" would have sufficed.

The thing that gets me is the fact that she wants a ring. After the fact she gave me coupon flier things for MCd's. been there. One gf of mine gave me a Arbys gift card for Xmas. Although I do love Arbys I just looked at her and walked out and never spoke to her again. I mean I took the time and effort to get her an iron for her birthday a week before and she pays me back like that? Whadda bitch.

I said, "well, what do you want?" she said, "Something crazy and expensive that I don't even need." so I signed her up for radiation treatments" Emo Philips Ah, Emo is a funny man. He was on the Bob & Tom show one morning (we listen at work, as it's one of the 3 stations we can get in) and he had me in stitches for several hours, just coming up with stuff off the top of his head. As for the problem with the GF, I don't know how to gauge this. On one hand it could be a gag gift, on the other hand it could show just how little she actually cares about you. I'm the last person to ask for relationship advice, but I don't think putting her head on a pike is an option unless you live in Mongolia or Turkey. Maybe you should sit back and wait and see if she keeps on harping about the ring? If she keeps harping about the ring and still doesn't give you a good reason why she gave you a coupon for Mickey D's, you should probably scram.
