You should NEVER let her buy stuff with your account. She should have her own account. My wife has her own account and I would never use any credit she had on her account.

You should to make your bride get her own account and return whatever it was she blew your credit on. You can't let her keep stealing your money.
I wouldn't say never, but I will say she should have let him know she bought something. That is the polite thing to do.

I would never share an account with my wife where we buy from the same account. For example, I've bought presents from Amazon and she'd see that I did and wat I bought. Also, sometimes I do get Amazon gift cards and I want to be able to spend it on myself.

The polite thing to do is see that it's coming off of credit and pay by card and keep the credit.

I used my Amazon credit on something my wife wanted. It did not bother me at all. We share everything. If I want to purchase a book I do so. I do not feel that the credit has to be used just for books for me. We are a team. Besides I like doing things for my wife.

That's your choice. But kansaskyle did not choose to do that. His wife spent it when he was planning on spending it since it was his.

Hubby and I have always had just the one Amazon account. He doesn't want any books right now plus he tends to go for free or 99p only, where I can blow $26 quite easily. I simply gave him cash for his half and I get to spend it all . We actually have no idea who the money actually belongs to based on books purchased. It's simply a credit on our Amazon account and we share it in half.

The credit just got spent on the next Amazon purchase. I'm sure his wife will reimburse him so he can buy his books.

So how do you buy a gift (via Amazon) for your husband without him knowing?

We don't have "his" and "her" money, it is all "our" money. My bride didn't maliciously and gleefully think she was getting one over on me by taking "my money" -- she didn't even notice.

I wasn't upset, I was just letting folks know their credit was not limited to just ebooks in case somebody else saw it disappear for an unexplained reason. It took me a few minutes to piece things together when I bought a couple ebooks and was charged for them.

We don’t have his or her money except when it’s a gift.

The Amazon accounts have my credit card. Though we rarely buy gifts for each other. It may be our age, it may be our lifestyle or it may be we don't need special occasions.
The big 2 were honey, I have something for you but you have to get rid of the other mixer. Kitchenaid with a ton of attachments. (It is used.)
Hey sweetheart , do you want a dashcam and rear view camera for the car?

We do. 18 years together has taught me it works best for us. I work hard for my gift cards he knows he has to ask before touching it just as he knows that desktop I let him use is "mine." I have to ask to use his money or debit card. He has his TV and I have mine. He has his bed and I have mine. We have less conflicts this way.

Oh yes, separate devices are wonderful.
Now we have not gone so far as to have separate beds but we do have separate top sheets and separate blankets. It is awesome. No one is too hot or too cold.
