Buying an Engagement Ring
Although an engagement ring is not an item to scrimp on, there are a few key ways to save money on your purchase that are simple and easy.

For example, rings that are 0.90 or 1.45 carats will likely be significantly cheaper than those that are 1.0 or 1.5 carats, and the chances are that no one other than a diamond expert will notice the difference. Another way to save money is to buy a lower clarity diamond—again, the vast majority of people, including your intended fiancee, are unlikely to notice the difference between clarity grades.MerchantCircle.com: How To Buy Cheap Engagement Rings
