What are some tips for standing your ground on a topic when you KNOW you are right and the answer is important?

I was in a situation where I carefully did well thought out research on a product. My husband suggested something on a whim without doing any research. I felt pressured to go with his choice.

I finally did enough research to prove that his choice was not a wise decision. He felt bad that he pressured me into the unwise choice. He asked me to speak up more when I was in this situation. Burt my instinct is to always give in, even when I am right. Because of this, we almost made a 1000$ mistake.

So what can I do when my instinct says “Give IN!” and I should NOT give in?
