Today, I went and bought my wife a new cell phone for a Christmas present. She called me five minutes later saying she got a notification e-mail thanking her for her purchase. FML

I guess Santa screwed that one up by sending your wife the e-mail that ruined the surprise. Old people and technology!

Shouldn't have used her email when you did the purchase? unless you two use the same one

I think he's saying he bought it with her money or something. Which is why SHE got the message instead of him. if so then Op deserves to get slapped.

married generally equals joint bank account.... so it's THEIR money

early christmas present since you can't really hide it.

something like this happened to my parents. they went out and bought me an iPad and I got a email receipt from apple. surprise surprise lol

#24, you're just jealous. And I'm jealous too. Pfft.

Both OP and you: what's with the "went and"? I see no purpose in those words.

She should not have mentioned the email and pretended to be surprised.

Unless it was a fraudulent charge, as after all, it DID thank her for a purchase she didn't make. It's safer to double check these things.

Hey, better than getting an e-mail from that Nigerian prince who's asking for more money to get bailed out of jail in return for giving you $2.2 million. Supposedly if I don't give him the money he'll be dethroned. Tugs at your heartstrings, huh? :/

mrahhhh, I know exactly what you are talking about. I just sent another $3000, but I know he is going to send me the reward this year. I am going to be rich for Christmas. I take such heart felt pride in know that I am helping him keep his throne but mostly it's about the money that's coming my way.

Dude I hope you're being sarcastic. That's an obvious scam for money.

No it's not. He's a real prince and everyone who helps him gets a shitload of money. You're just jealous you were too afraid to take a risk for once.

Benny, don't be stupid. Kayak is right - Mr. Benjamin Aboye has promised me my 1.5 million€ lottery winnings once I send him a 500€ filing fee. I already sent 1000€ registration fee. I can't wait for my windfall!!!

Oh yeah, I got an email from some random dude who left me his inheritance of millions of dollars but i had to send him money first. I really hope people don't fall for that.

Well I guess you'll fall victim to natural selection.
