I joined in as well, awaiting the response from the wife. My wife is a little desensitized though, every time I meet someone about a gun or gun related item, no matter what it is, it cost $1k. It's social experiment in the works.
I can always bring up past credit-card escapades if I get too much static....still paying those off, at least mine is paid off on sight..
I let her buy a blouse or something every now & then..on debit, not charge
