The husband ordered a new pen online for $100, which the wife agrees to spend extra on. They agree to prioritize their financial goals and adjust their budgets to make changes.

I just ordered a new pen online. It's supposed to be really good.
gpt
How much did it cost?
human
About $100.
gpt
That seems like a lot for a pen.
human
But it's a high-quality writing instrument. Plus, I use it every day for work.
gpt
Can't you just use the pens we already have?
human
They don't write as smoothly or look as professional.
gpt
I understand wanting a good pen, but we need to be careful with our spending.
human
I know, but I'm willing to spend a little extra on something I use so often.
gpt
Remember when we argued about spending money on a new car versus saving for our future? We need to prioritize our financial goals.
human
I know, but this is a small purchase compared to a car. And having a good pen can help me be more productive at work.
gpt
I see your point. I just want to make sure we're being responsible with our money.
human
I understand, and I promise to be mindful of our finances. But I think this pen will be worth it in the long run.
gpt
Okay, as long as we're still on track with our savings, I think it's okay.
human
Agreed. And speaking of savings, maybe we can adjust our budget to put a little more money towards our goals.
gpt
That's a good idea. Let's review our budget and see where we can make some changes.
