Question How do I explain THIS???

Just a couple of days after having a frank and earnest "discussion" with my wife about her spending I happened to be brousing through the Trading Post and saw an advert for a 289 from a '66 stang .To cut a long story short I came home with a 289 long motor ,a 302 short motor, a set of reco heads and a considerably lighter wallet.
HOW do I explain this? "It was a bargin "and "by buying this now I've saved a lot of money " just aren't cutting the mustard.

Just tell her it was pure "vengance"

It is always tough to explain wife about such things, the best thing is to get the "hit" and just pretend you are really sorry

Flowers, one cannot go wrong with FLOWERS! (not to mention a romantic dinner for two... if the remaining cash in the wallet allows...)
