LMAO on this thread, I figured I was the only one that dealt with this type of anguish. My wife is an avid reader and collector of select books including the one that sat under the Xmas tree - autographed John Le Carre that I found in some remote part of the world. Now I was after a set of VR goggles from Santa but the cost differential at first between the book and the goggles seemed too great at first until I played the pitiful card of having to do hours of research, countless phone calls and speaking to someone in New York chasing down this particular book. I could see the gratefulness sweep over the wife's face and used that as the opportunity to introduce my 'cheap' goggles to sit in one of the two drone cases that support my 'habit'. I felt guilty at first but figured we both had a win, she gets to cradle the book like a baby and I can go outside and return to my youth.
