Top ten ways to buy sled stuff w/o your wife finding out;)

ReTodd · Sep 11, 2009

Buy something she will agree to via paypal. Then, return it and get a credit on your paypal account. The money can sit there until you buy sled stuff and doesn't go in or out of the bank account.

Any others?

Have your dad or brother pay for. Works for me

Pay in cash

Scott · Sep 11, 2009

Have separate credit card and checking accounts.

Also...take out a cash advance off the credit card and tell her you were down a few bucks.

Barton · Sep 11, 2009

I usually just tell her it was for her sled

My pops has a little side shop, He's dealer for a couple outfits. he orders stuff and tells her it's for someone else, Waits a week or so and puts it on his..lol Seems to work. BLAME IT ON YOUR BUDDYS.

I like to use my personal business account

and unless the whole sled changes color she won't have a clue.

I have a buddy that switched from a black 07 RMK to a 09 black XP and his wife had no idea it was a new sled because the color did not change.

Go shopping at costco buy a hot dog for 1.61 things then get 60 bucks back or 30 if you write a check They will never ask because they where just happy you spent under 100 bucks at costco. Works for me

We have seperate everthing checking/credit cards you name it. I dont have anything to worry about. But I better make sure I keep enough money in the account to pay bills because she dont like when I ask her for money.

What mine is mine and hers is hers.

Ship everything to your work address

skibreeze · Sep 11, 2009

I don't tell her anything, she'll see it when it gets delivered.

So far, my wife has been pretty good. It helps that when she buys something (like clothes or house decor) I never question it. I'm fortunate that she doesn't go nuts with that though. Also, when she wants something, like tile floors, or Jet skis, I make it a priority. She wanted jet skis, I found some, and now that I want to upgrade my sled, it's not a problem. But, I'm fortunate, I realize not every relationship works this way.

I rarely do that.......BUT

I had a very large box show up one day in Jan of 2008 with an EZ Ryde in it. It was on the front porch when we got home that day....

THAT was a tough one to explain. LOL

Just tell her, she'll get over it as soon as you do something else wrong!

I got my own card and I have stuff shipped to my work, she has no idea what comes off or on my sled.

Buy whatever you want and tell her to shut her hole if she complains.

Or, get a wife like mine, then life is good.
