So...
I'm materially blessed - I always tell folks to NOT buy me any gifts.
So I come down stairs Christmas morning...
Near the fireplace is a bass case
----
I play it for a while... was astounded santa could pick out a good one... or even more taken back she had the planning to locate an out of production obscure model
-----
Fast forward...
Wife comes down seeing me playing it.
She pours herself some coffee and sits down to open her presents.
I don't have any presents to open so just keep playing the bass.
Fastforward...
So I play it longer...
Wife doesn't say anything.... just goes along like a normal day.
---------
I then went to find my other bass (I own a ton) that's the same year, color and model.
Can't find it.. drove to my storage place... can't find it..
I return home.....
Me "babe.. any clue if you've seen me leave a bass in the car or anything" (this does happen often )
Wife: did you leave it at church
Me.. I called
Wife: which exact bass...
Me: the black one just like I was playing...
Wife: (Laughing)... oh yea.. I took it out of the trunk and left it the in front of the fireplace so you'd find it - thought you may need it today and would like it to warm up.
.... you didn't think I bought that for you did you --- you told me not to buy you anything.---- I didn't want to nag you about leaving gear in the car.

Wife "where did that come from?"
Me: "santa and chuckle..."
Note: My wife is clueless of how many total basses I own... where I keep them and/or could care less when I order anohter one.Me: "santa and chuckle..."

Wife: "what do you think"
Me: "it's cool -- my preferred model.... in great shape.. hasn't been played a ton."
