So what is the biggest thing you have bought and then hidden from your spouse??

I know it sounds bad but I guess I mean maybe if for just a short while. As I get on in life, I'm enjoying the roll of a "marital peace officer". After I bought my dirt bike and my Camaro without running it past my wife first, we both decided to discuss certain purchases together. We are not exactly rolling in the dough.

Never fails.......just after this agreement I find a guy selling a complete running 454 with every pulley/bracket/pump you can think of. the guy wanted $300 on craigslist and I knew I had to act fast. I knew it would be impossible to show the logic to my wife on purchasing a motor for which I have no vehicle, only to have it take up space in a garage that already has no space. Anyway..........

Can you find the motor in this pic? HINT: It's the BBC that looks like a BBC with a sheet over it! lol

I thougth it would be fun to try and find the biggest purchase you have made but didn't tell your spouse for fear of the consequences. This is not directed at the lucky folks with deep pockets that buy what they want and when they want it......make sense?

UPDATED: This was really meant to be in fun but I can see how it might be easy to simply comment on what I did. The post is not about what you thing about what I did but rather if you have done something similar. The OP isn't looking for hatemail.....just wondering what purchases got you in the doghouse!
