CFBAE2CA-7FB3-4CC5-941C-3E4A6A14DEBD.jpeg So I’ve been meaning to install a rear hellwig sway bar for a while. Then Christmas comes around and the wife asks what I’d like to get. I told her about the sway bar and today it was sitting on our doorstep when I got home early from work. She’s at work at the moment, but to help keep the surprise I’ll place it back outside so she’ll think I have no idea... I’ll work on my surprised face for the next two weeks LOL

So how do you explain to her you got into the house and didn't notice a huge box out front?

We get stuff delivered all the time. Sometimes we have no idea something is on our doorstep. She’ll just think it was dropped off after I got home lol.

Your lucky not to have some of those damn thieves around that steal things off people's porches.

Funny you mention that. People have complained about packages missing one street over, so I brought the box inside and put it back outside when she was fixing to pull up our street, just in case lol.

So she pulled into the garage, walked into the house, then sneaked the box in through the front door and hid it somewhere before she even said hello. I made pretend I was busy looking something up on my phone in another room lol.

We don't do that much around our place anymore. Sitting next to the tree right now are my new headlights and tails. She pulled them from my Amazon wish list, and I recognize the names on the boxes. Got to wait till christmas to open them though.

Honestly, one of the best years we had was when we skipped the lists and separate shopping. We went out and shopped together, I paid for her stuff, she paid for mine. We each got exactly what we wanted and no returns needed.

Must be nice to have a wife with money.

Mine just tells me to “buy what you want” as a present from her. I do that all the time around my Birthday and Christmas, but I buy it for me, so what’s the point.

Yeah my Rough Country Leveling Kit is under the Christmas tree now and is strategically positioned so it’s in constant line of sight to me. I think my wife put it there to torment me. No she didn’t bother to wrap it.
When I tell her it’s torture for me to see it she laughs and says I’m like a kid.
I ask her if I can have my big kid toy now and the answer never changes. Hell No...
