Lying to spouse about cost of mods

[TacoSlinger4000]

Please be honest and hopefully this will remain anonymous. Just wondering if anybody does this and asking for a friend.

If you start going down that path of lieing or low-balling....what else are you gonna do in the future. Just my 2 cents.

I frame it as my truck is my hobby (expensive and I don’t have that many mods yet) but it’s my me-time and my wife respects that.

If she doesn't ask, then i keep it to myself! If she asks then i tell her after she has had a nice glass or 2 of her favorite Wine ( I keep on hand just for these special occasions)

Hahaha! I’ve got my stash of my wife’s fav alcohol too!!!!!

for the most part we have been a team in building both our trucks, that being said we have never really discussed the cost of my King Suspension. She never asked how much, I and i never really put a number on it.

Lol, this is my new favorite thread.

But Paige is in on this with me.

My wife is our accountant. I can't sneak a $20 bottle of booze into the shopping cart without her knowing.

That being said, I do keep my own separate cash stash for toys. Anything I sell or earn as a result of my truck/guns/cigars/etc. stays in that stash permanently unless there's some kind of emergency where I need to spring a little extra cash for something unrelated. In general, I do pretty well. When it's something crazy expensive like almost $5k in suspension and tires, then obviously I need to go plead my case to the boss.

Other option is get sponsored OR do reviews to get free stuff to try out. Not familiar with that process but I know people do it.

I’ll say a part is a little cheaper than it actually is, until I buy it then she sees how much it actually is lol. But she already caught on to the pattern since we’ve been together forever. So she knows what’s up already.

what she doesnt know won't hurt me
