Who has. who wants to. No matter man or woman. That's my opinion.
Also, there are periods you spend more, then you change tactics, and so on.
I would not try a statistic on gender but rather on individual personality, perhaps the age matters ...
Thanks, I enjoy MyLotting !

Even though, my husband would say he doesn't spend any money, he is the one who spends the most money. I do not buy things for myself. The money I spend is for bills, food etc. I can hold on to a dollar for a long time.
When I do spend it usually is for things for my husband. Milk, half and half, etc. My husband will not think before he spends the last dollar, if it is something he wants he will spend it. I would think, this is my last dollar, I really do not need that.
So, to answer your question, my husband spends more money.

If you want to have exact answer. I think it is difficult. Men or women spen more money? It depends on specific person. If you see women to be crazy shopping, you will find that guild is better. Haaaa.
But, Guide will be crazier than women when they joy in some glambing.

I vote for men :) Women are more prudent when it comes to buying things. women try to compare prices before buying but men don't. Men usually buy the first thing they see in the market. like for example, my hubby go to the store to buy a towel. He pick the very first towel that he saw & are already willing to pay for it. Upon comparing the prices it was 2x expensive to the other towel with the same quality. I guess he was just like that because he wanted to save time but me I prefer to save more money :)

yes larish,, men save time,, go back to work and make more money,, so the girl will get 4 lipsticks,, 5 pairs of shoes,, 7 jeans,, 5 hair dyes,, 7 socks,, 4 wigs etc,, and the men love that,, is it not true,, some girls will buy ,, what they don't even need/or use,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I think men spend more money than woman. Although women probably buy more stuff than the guys who buy expensive electronics/video games, women are usually buying cheaper things and are more likely to comparison shop and use coupons. For things like clothes, there's more options for women so they can more easily find better deals.

I can totally relate with that miumew! We girls know how to scout for cheaper and better things, that's why we could spend lesser money but can get more stuffs!
So what do you like shopping Miumew? Welcome to mylot! =)

I think women spend more money compared to men because women love to shop for clothes, shoes, make-ups, skin care (lotions, soaps, etc), bags and other accessories, jewelries... Women also like to go to the salon regularly for hair treatments, manicure and pedicure, foot spa, body massage... not to mention the gym membership

If you ask me, I'll say it's my wife. And if you ask her she'll say it's me. So you can add 1 count to both.
In general, we both spend more for our son.

its really hard to say. most people think its women because they tend to buy more things then men. when you think about what women buy what men buy you will know who spends more money. i know form my own experiance that i would spend more money at over time then my boyfriend dose. most of the my boyfriend buys are electorics and they tend to cost more then cloths and makeup. so i would have to say that men spend more money in a shorter time, but in long term i think that women do.

I think me & my husband are about equal. I have a shopping addiction & spend tons of money, he doesnt really like to shop, but when he wants something, he gets it & it is usually items for hunting which usually cost 100's of dollars. I say men & women are equal in spending. i think guys buy more expensive stuff, but women buy more stuff that equals to the guys expensive stuff.

My boyfriend is the one who spends money. He does not buy generic or anything like that. He also does not look at gas prices or anything like that. I think that the
people who spend money are generally neither male nor female but just spenders. Spenders versus savers.

In general people saya women, I think women spent more visible than with men. What is issued by man much larger and usually does not open, its very large number of. Men prfer to keep the amount of the cost compared with the women. Cost incurred men in general, only for personal enjoyment only.

My husband spends more than I do, so I say men spend more. I'll spend $5 on a paperback book, and he'll spend $60 on a videogame, and he buys them a lot more often than I buy books. I prefer to go to the library.
