Will keep our fingers crossed for you Meg.  The demo is usually the clincher.

Hi Meg. Once your DH sees what it can do, especially in the way of making things from scratch, hopefully he'll be rushing to get you one.

Hi megscott, welcome to the forum.  You are right, it is hopeless sometimes trying to get across to people the benefits of the TMX - they have to see it for themselves to believe it but if they won't go to a demo, they will continue to be negative.  Plenty of us here to talk about it with you  :D :D

Goodluck Meg.  I saw the TM at a demo but it took my husband having a look to get one.  Husbands seem to love them.

Welcome megscott - yes I agree - it's been my experience that when the hubby sees it in action and is eatting all the yummy stuff he doesn't even notice the price tag, as much.  ;)

Welcome Megscott. Sometimes men just have to see something working to appreciate it. I hope you are able to have a demo when your DH is home. Meanwhile we are happy to talk TMX with you.

Good luck with you partner going halves Gen Y  ;D ;D

Hi Megscott and welcome to the forum. You have chosen the correct approach in getting your DH to see this kitchen miracle in action at a demo - males and the hands on approach rarely fails  :D  :D - best of luck!!!  :)  ;)

thanks for the warm welcome  ;D
to be honnest he really seems ok with me getting one YAY. he has seen i think how hard im trying to change my whole family eating habbits (he works away and is only home every 2nd weekend we call him the casual dad LOL)
So even when i doooo mention getting one there is not real upset at all so i think its a go with out him really seeing it.
I am also trying to de clutter the home and ill have a garage sale just to get some money for the TM for my self.
