My husband, being an astute shopper, as well as an employee at a large local hardware store, keeps an eye on all the closeouts and sales where he works.©JOKEDEMO.COM

One evening he came in the door as usual, we exchanged our usual 'glad to see you' affection, then I noticed that 'i've got a surprise for you' look on his face.©JOKEDEMO.COM

He held up two large sacks filled with items. In the two sacks were eight candleholders for 25 cents apiece, because he knows I love candles.©JOKEDEMO.COM

The other sack contained ten bottles of window cleaner, which closed out for 50 cents each.©JOKEDEMO.COM

I loved the gifts, but was overwhelmed with the quantity so I asked, "Honey! What did you do? Buy everything but the kitchen sink?"©JOKEDEMO.COM

He grinned in his impish way and motioned for me to follow him.©JOKEDEMO.COM

He is so good at that impishness I never know just what will occur next. Full of curiosity and love for my interesting husband, I followed him out to the car.©JOKEDEMO.COM

He slowly opened the truck and low and behold! There was the kitchen sink!©JOKEDEMO.COM

He grinned at me again and told me he couldn't leave such an expensive sink there when it cost next to nothing! I guess i'll have to find a different 'old saying' in the vernacular when it comes to my husband!
