"mom when you smile I know you are lying"

So I went out shopping for the holidays with my husband and kids. For the most we shopped separately and switched off with the kids. I found a few good deals that we hadn't planned on, so I tried to sneakily show him without the girls seeing. They apparently saw and then I tried to deny buying them. I thought I was good at bluffing with my tiny white lie. Nope! Apparently my oldest can tell when I fib. Oops! So what tricks have worked for you to shop and keep things a "secret". Last night I had tied shopping by myself and then switch the toys to hubby so he could pay for them and some other items he wanted to pick up while I took the kids off for a different distraction. Boy do I miss the days I could say "close your eyes" and hide something in the cart!
