1988 my engagement ring was £205,he only earnt £30 a week so it took him ages to save for.my wedding ring was my grandmothers,she died 6mths before i was born and i was given it on my 16th birthday and said i would use it as my wedding ring and i did in 1992

My engagement ring was about 12 pounds, (1971) and wedding ring 18 pounds,(1973) we were very poor, he was an appentice and I was a student, our first flats rent was only 2.72 a week, shows how poor we were! I had to have them made larger a few years ago, that alone cost 32 pound, more than the original cost!!! Suex

My engagement ring cost about £23 1962, my granddaughter lost it for me about 7 years ago, wedding ring about £15 1962 22crt gold still wearing it even though we are separated.

I've been married twice and have no idea how much my engagement rings were. Both husbands chose them and the really funny thing is they are identical rings! Second hubby offered to change it but I wouldn't let him as he had chosen it specially. I chose the second wedding ring which was supposed to be a plain gold band but then I fell in love with one which had 6 tiny Russian diamonds set in it, so that bumped it up by several hundred! We had daisies engraved inside our rings. All together now aaaaahhhhhh! Daisy

My engagement ring cost my (now) husband a months wages back in 1969 - £29. Not H Samuel, but a shop in Nottingham called Poyser's. Interestingly they gave us a present with the ring - a set of playing cards - what did they think we were going to do on our honeymoon!! My wedding ring was, I think about £7 - I still have it, but can't get it on my finger now as I have swollen knuckles (how attractive) but he did buy me a replacement a few years back - can't remember how much that was.

hiya yvonne the cards were to play happy familys with lol

only have an engagement ring at present. Jam paid £30 for it and then last year when we went into the shop i told him i'd never seen my ring for £30 and he said thats cos it wasn't £30...the price he should've paid was £60 but he knew the person who served him so got a discount...of course warren james are all half price jewellery anyways so the ring is actual worth £120...i nearly fainted when he told me but now he's upset cos since having baby i can't wear the ring so its on a chain round my neck

I forgot to mention that my engagement ring lives with the £55 wedding ring also at the bottom of the Tyne!! But i did get an eternity ring off Ex hubby 2 years ago!! This cost £1350, cos 'our love will last for an eternity!!' his words not mine!! LOL!! Luv him really!! Karen

mine were both got in germany so its a secret how much they cost, the secret is he dont remember how much they cost,
