yeah but wives a lot of the time buy "house" stuff like new dishes or furniture. You buy RC cars.....
The difference is you can utilize what she buys yet she doesn't utilize what you buy (RC stuff anyway).

So it's usually a win/win situation for us guys when our wife may buy something or want something.

My wife's funny, she'll want something like new towels for a present. I'm thinking to myself, man new towels would be sweet, I'll get to use her present as much as she does. It's really like a present for both of us.
