Wow I betNo matter what I buy, it will always be cheaper than my wife's horses... I think I'm safe!
Wow...!!!
I can just imagine....I can't put on here what my wife said the other day when she opened the doors to my cellar.
my wife dont have horses but she does have camera equipment and other hobbies, so lately I have everything sent to my work address I didnt just fall off the truck yesterday. Hope my job holds out now, may have to open a PO box

My wife has horses, 4 of them. She is also a part time photographer. Women got to have hobbies too. But, there are no secrets in my marriage. She knows how many pipes, cigars, and baccy I have. I wouldn't dare keep it from her.
Goodness I almost feel guilty about the way my prior post sounds, I don't hide a thing, she knows I like cigars and baccy the same way I know she love shoes...... And I don't pay a bit of attention to all the shelves full of em
I hope you responded with, baby that's not the kitchen!I can't put on here what my wife said the other day when she opened the doors to my cellar.
heck, we've been married longer than you've been alive
we don't keep secrets, but after MANY years of being married Ya learn to ignore what the other one is doing. We have a great relationship, at least I think so, I just have stuff sent here so you all dont get my dang address And I just found out today I aint gonna have this address much longer either, I usually don't tell her that I got anything, she just notices that the baccy cellar keeps growing.... and growing, ect. We always had the way of thinking that, if you got the money and want something, get it. Unless its a huge purchase of course.
My wife "knows" about my cigars and that I have few pipes.
But she's never seen the inside of my humidor or all the tins of pipe baccy or the (as of last count) 18 pipes. So I don't think that she fully appreciates the actual amount that I now have.
I would certainly tell her if she asked. I'm just happy that she doesn't.

Same here- I don't hide it from her, but she was shocked at my hoarding LOL. She has a new car and I drive a beater truck, on and on. It's a give and take.
Sounds just like me, I always tell her to get a new one I'll take over after it hits 100k or so so she can get another, I guess we're blessed enough that it doesn't matter either way so we don't really ask
Though she did question that 400$ leaf blower, but it made clearing the yard sooooo much easier and the time savings is worth it, oh and I can now easily smoke a cigar while doing it.... Almost doesn't feel like work anymore
On items like the leaf blower, one has to evaluate the investment vs. time saved- I guarantee if it saves even 2 hours that blower has already paid for itself.
I didn't really man to start anything fellas. To each their own and all. I typed that before my morning cup of coffee, so I might have come off a little harsh
Yeah, ditto on the beater truck thing. I also wear a uniform everyday so she gets all the clothes budget. Lol

That's exactly how we look at it, too. I sure hope my post didn't come across as "holier than thou" because I sure as hell ain't!heck, we've been married longer than you've been alive

She knows I have a lot of cigars and pipes and she chooses not to care as long as it doesn't prevent us from having a roof over our head or food on the table.
Definitely didn't start anything, I personally think it's interesting how spouses feel about our habits
It takes a lot to ruffle my feathers lol
My wife has no idea how much $$ is tied up in my humidor and cellar. If she were to ask, I'd fake a heart attack. If she found the receipts, I'd feign dementia. I got this baby covered, and we were able to enjoy a nice little trip down to Nicaragua to check out retirement properties. (And cigar factories.)
I kid, I kid.... kinda.

I hope it wasn't bout the retirement properties we all wanna come visit
Back on track, lol.
I was able to jump on the last of the BnB groupons before they were gone. Purchased 2 $100 groupons @ $49 each and was refunded $34. I sat on them for a little while and BnB had a $15 off orders of $100+ so I figured it was time to spend them. I also decided it was time to purchase my first brand new brand name pipe. Here is what I ended up with for a total of $84.98 out of pocket after shipping. These are also all new tobaccos to me.
