That would be better as a Mother's Day gift so you could use it shortly after in the summer. Odd to give something useless now. You should create an Amazon Universal wishlist, it's a public wishlist where you can add any product from any website to it.

Of course I thanked him and smiled and casually asked "how did you get the idea for the hammock?". Grinning like a giant 2 year old toddler who colored a work of art he said "you had it in your Amazon cart".  I give him full marks for a great gift. Sorry it didn't work out the way you'd thought when you put it in your cart. I hope that it will bring a smile to your face every time you see it and that you will learn to love it. |

I love that he was so proud of himself! Enjoy your hammock.  Considering there is snow on the ground...might be May. But I could set it up in the living room, crank up the heat and have him get me margaritas? Oh, do it! And set up the camera so you can get a photo of the two of you. These are the unexpected moments that can be so wonderful. |

LOL. DH did something similar last year. I throw ideas for gifts on my list, books I want to read, products the Peas recommend, etc. Last year I got a lot of random stuff. Books I'd already read, kitchen towels, a cow timer that I thought would be a good gag gift for my BFF. I asked DH how he came up with my items and he said off my Amazon cart. lol! I was careful to clean out my list this year and make a separate list just for him!

Bless his heart for trying! Wonder how many of us are double-checking what we have in our cart and on our wish lists at Amazon? I was just thinking I better purge my lists! |

I'm not even sure what color I put in the cart and he doesn't know which one he bought. I'm going to wait until it warms up and surprise myself. |

My DH does this and it drives me crazy. I put stuff in my cart just to watch or remind myself. Never fails DH will call at work and say "hey- that super random thing you had in the cart, I ordered it." I know it is a sweet thing but I've had to return a few things because I didn't actually want them.
DD wanted a hammock and grandpa sent 3... can't wait to use them!
