mewho:
i find some of the jewlry store ads obnoxious—for shalom bayis make sure to bring home a new piece of jewelry to your wife for yom tov…..what about those who cannot afford that, is the implication that without a new piece of jewelry there is no shalom bayis?
See the gemara in Shabbos (62b) that there is indeed a difference between one who can and cannot afford it.
