The Walmart Wedding Band

Men's jewelry isn't just for pompous ring-knockers, pimps, and pianists. Normal guys need a few simple pieces of jewelry as well. For example, every guy needs a wedding band. You can get by without a wedding band, but you may have to carry a stick to keep desperate single women away from you. If you do have to get a wedding band, you can get one made out of titanium from Walmart.com for only $40. The Walmart alternative represents a savings of at least $150 over a gold band from a traditional jewelry store. This savings could be applied to the purchase of something useful like a trolling motor or, for wussies, a nicer engagement ring for your fiancee.

I got my new ring because my I've been married long enough for my fingers to get too pudgy for my original wedding band. However, if you have to get married quick, Walmart.com can deliver your ring within 3 or 4 days and it will arrive in a plain white box. Inside, it will have perfectly respectable padded presentation box and a small carrying pouch. Walmart.com has a variety of men's wedding bands with different finishes and materials at very affordable prices.

The ring design that I chose is a plain titanium band with a nicely detailed edge. The color and finish matches most typically masculine accessories like wristwatches, pocket knives, and stainless steel handguns. Like any wedding band, your ring will accumulate some small scratches. However, you'll be able to shrug off any that accumulate on your Walmart wedding ring and be secure in the knowledge that you didn't spend a lot of money for it. After a couple of weeks of constant daily wear, I have not noticed any unusual wear, fading, scratches, or skin reactions. The Chinese-made ring has stood up to showering, dishwashing, dog walking, and other typical daily duties. If you are into fishing, hunting, or other outdoor activities, the Walmart.com wedding band should be able to accompany you on your adventures without worries.

On a serious note, the wedding and jewelry industry works very diligently to pump your wedding day full of extraneous expenses. The Walmart.com wedding band is one way to fight back. While you should never scrimp on a woman's ring, Walmart.com offers a perfectly appropriate alternative for a man's wedding band. Congratulations on your big day and your big savings.
