Tell her you won it in the SRP monthly drawings!

The best part of this thread is that while many of us are posting smart@ss remarks for someone else to say to SWMBO, we are all thinking as we read at least 1 post, "wow, I might actually use that"!

You work hard for your money. Why cant you spend a bit of it on something you want. The ladies blow all kinds of dough on there grooming products.

Tell her it was a trade....

Exactly...

While my spouse is sure I 'have way too many', she couldn't pick them out of a line up so couldn't confirm exactly what I actually have. Plus I have them all over the house, the garage and the shop, so if she looks at the razors in rotation, it's only the tip of the iceberg.

It was a trade!!

What I do is simple: I never comment on her latest purchases; I may even encourage her consuming passion. Thus she never complains about my razors/soaps/brushes etc.
And more important: All shipments are delivered to my working address!

Good luck!

Remind her how many pairs of shoes she has.

You could tell her it was sent out to be honed by someone else Or tell her the truth, let her rage if she has to and buy her flowers and have make-up sex.

I'm liking this thread, but it's a bit childish for us who like to call themselves gentlemen to come up with lies to tell our ladies. I made a better promise. I will only buy new razors if they are really pretty.

FWIW, I'd never lie to my lovely wife.
I liken it to a learning story I once heard and kinda live by.
"When I come home drunk and don't want a hassle, I just drop all my clothes at the front door, tear down the hall, dive into bed, slap her on the ass and ask her is she's as horny as me" Never hear a peep
Be BOLD MAN!
