Sure do, she catches a package in the mail every now and then but don't usually ask questions, as long as all the bills are paid, but i still get the " how are you paying for this" every now and then
I'm lucky. My wife luvs ti shop n she luvs Bass Pro Shops. I say BPS n her n my pup are ready to go. Lately she spends more there than I do. I'm still trying to arrange all the stuff i bought when gander mountain when out if business then gander outdoors went out. I'm having a hard time justifying buying more stuff but I'm sure I'll find a reason come BPS spring classic 😁😁

I went to Dicks yesterday to pickup a $35 pair of hip boots, it only cost me $110 to get out of the store. I didn't NEED anything else.

$23 is cheap for a shirt now. I get my spending cash from doing odd jobs, bush hogging, mowing, plowing gardens, home repairs, pluming, electrical, most any thing. I'm retired, the extra cash buys most anything I need for fishing. Don't answer, "Where did you get the money to buy that?" It's a trick question there is no justifiable answer that will satisfy the person ssking the question. Keep fishing. DEEJAY
You guys remind me of a TV show some 10 years or more ago. It was about a door to door salesman who had a speech impediment. Now he sold all sorts of things, perhaps like an old time Watkins or Reliegh salesmen. Well, he had one female client who would usually buy one of his special items every month.
Years go by, and his special client dies. Later, he goes by and the son of the client answers the door. When the son realizes who the salesman is, and his company, he said, "Please come in, i want to show you something!' Upon entering the house, the son leads the salesman to a room in the house that was stuffed, floor to ceiling with his products. The woman had felt sorry for him and bought something every time even though she had not need for anything, but just stacked all of it in one of her rooms. Are you guys going to be like that lady?

I use my fishing and hunting equipment.
None bought because it was pretty, bought for use.

I never really answer the question i just mumble and walk away, as long as she don't see what's in the package I'm good.
