• VIDEO: Trick yourself into saving more
• What purchases spouses hide from each other
I'm not even married yet, but I already hide some of my purchases from my live-in boyfriend. We're saving up for a house, and we both work hard - I just need to de-stress and reward myself with shoes every so often.

Men don't understand the need for the shoes we already have, let alone the new ones we need to buy. So why showcase I'm spending money on something he'll never understand?

Of course, nine times out of ten, he doesn't buy the whole, "But honey, I've had these for years" bit, but I can get away with a few here and there. And I do.
