    Boy if this isn't the truth... I even find myself changing my work schedule so I can get to the mailbox before she does! Thank goodness for tracking or I'd be permanently camped outside!!

    stick it in a bin in the garage for a week or so..."What? That old thing? That's been there a while."

    I have the fun stuff shipped to my work address.

    I also tell the wife that I am getting the stuff to make sure she is more comfortable when she goes hanging. Just glad she is not into pink camo.
    I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !

    You should spend $50 to DIY, then make such a mess that she tells you to just buy everything.

    Not that I'd know from experience.

    Least you'll "have a nice place to live" if she does find out!

    You guys/gals are all a bunch of enablers! I love it.

    The ideas you mentioned are all a part of my arsenal.
    The garage hidey hole...done it.
    Awkwardly slinking to the mailbox randomly after months of never visiting it...yup.
    Buying her something so the other items get dusted over...I would never...
    Spending over $3000 on titanium...nope. You got me there Dutch.
