I'm in deep trouble....

Seriously? If you have to make up a story you're doomed. Admit you are powerless against the power of the kilt. If that doesn't work, just tell her your girlfriend wanted you to get it.

"It's been on back order so long, I'd forgotten that I ordered and hadn't cancelled it! It really is very nice! If it's OK with you, I'll keep it since I'd have to eat the shipping both ways if I return it???!!!"
Good Luck and Semper Fi

On second thought.. this is pretty slick.

Better yet...buy your wife a present, too!! You can both have something new! A 'just because" gift!

LOL - You guys sound like the ladies in my knitting and stitching groups hiding THEIR stash from THEIR husbands/boyfriends.

It's a lot easier to hide a few balls of sock yarn than a kilt, though.

Seriously, though. Fess up, and start a kilt fund for the next one. Planned expenditures are always better for the budget.

Kilt fund, eh? That's a great idea. We already have a Christmas club account and starting a kilt fund would be easy right now.

Thanks for the idea

...or am I sleeping on the couch for the next month?

I just wonder what should happen to you, did you a bad thing...

Honesty is the best policy. Own up to it, and then give her the really great gift you just happened to see online and knew she would love

[Nighthawk]

Bunch o' schemin' liers the lot o' ya! Tell her the truth and apologize. She'll get over it- eventually.

[Makeitstop]

Take her out to some place fancy as a surprise, or something else along those lines which requires dressing up, and wear the kilt. Don't say anything about it, just let it blend in. At worst it becomes part of something random and nice, and if you're lucky she won't even notice.

[Bugbear]

Nighthawk's right. She will look into the first lie and you will have to lie about lieing and it goes on and on and on and you'll know where you'll be.
Just take your lumps up front, but... she might actually like the kilt in the first place...
