My gf doesnt care really, but if i take a good chunk of change for something i just tell her to do the same, most likley `cus i cant stand to have anything that can be used against me later...in or out of a court of law.

10 Years in hobby, my wife knows everything.
It was fun though to watch her happy face when i was selling the LR from my old 108 Gal before we moved.
She said wow !, you 've got so much money just for the rocks?!
Whait a minute....
How much did you pay in the first place !!!???

Bringing the other half to the fish store is good idea , works in the long run.
That way she knows and understands when there is nothing for two or three visits and then boom something shows up and "She makes a choice" of coral or fish, and it bocomes her favorite...
Rather then explaining youreself every time you bring something in the bag.
$ 20 story only works for the first year.
