Based on my experience, the reason its more men than women who do this is because women are usually attempting to hide other purchases, like their 15th black handbag

I know some of those sneaky fellows!

One friend sneaks the wine into the cellar through the garage, lest the wife see him bring boxes in the house.

Another routinely buys bottles for himself and has them gift-wrapped (at an extra charge) under the guise of business gifts for associates.

Most interesting!

This seems sad to me! I do not think I could live in the midst of such covert operations. But I am female and I would rather (and often do) buy wine than shoes and I have never owned a handbag. My hello Kitty backpack keeps things well organized and the credit card handy in the front when I need to whip it out and buy some Peter Michael or Dugat or the like... :wink:
