It is very important to set an appropriate budget before buying an engagement ring. It has become a tradition to follow the “two months salary” rule. This rule states that whatever you make in two months should be how much money you spend on her ring. However, if you find the perfect ring, and it costs less then tow months of your salary, it is more important to get the kind of ring that she would like then to spend a lot of money.

Once you have found the ring, never forget to negotiate the price. Many people believe that you cannot negotiate with a jeweler, but think of the jeweler as a car salesman. Most places try to charge you double then what the ring really costs, and are willing to negotiate the price in order to make a good sale.
