I don't tell him I'm buying it. If I do he makes a comment about my loads of fabric. But he knows When I do because he pays the bills. He never comments once it's bought.

Hubby never goes into my rooms, so he has no idea what I have! :) :) :)
I have some 2 drawer file cabinets and have them under a table (out of site) and that is where I file some of my quilting books, magazines, etc. nice and organized that way.

When I get home from shopping I leave my fabrics (I'm a fabricaholic) in the back of my van until my hubby is gone or busy doing something else then I sneak my purchases in and stash them in my sewing room. He never looks in my sewing cupboards. He has no idea how much "stuff" i have accumulated!!

My DH is also an enabler. He will often help me choose fabric combinations. He has a very good eye for colour.
We each get and allowance every payday that we don't have to account for. I spend most of mine on fabric, he spends most of his on tractors.
If I order online, I do have it shipped to my work....not to hide it from him, but because my co-workers are also enablers and always enjoy seeing my latest purchases. Then they look forward to show and tell as each item is finished.

To go along with my earlier answer...I remember my mother hiding the clothes and shoes she purchased (she was a "clothes horse"). She would put them in the back of her closet then when she'd get them out to wear them and my dad would ask about them she would just say, "Oh, I've had this for a long time, it was in the back of the closet". Sneaky mom!!!! lol
