Looks like my mom. She always did that, and she was tricky too. I often tell this story, but it is my "A Christmas Story" moment. I had wanted a Super Nintendo more than anything in 1991 when they came out. They were expensive though and hard to get. I was sure I didn't get one, especially since there was no box that size under the tree. Not only did my mom get it, she opened it up, wrapped the console in bubble wrap and wrapped it individually. It was soft so it seemed like clothes or something that no kid ever has been excited about.
I pulled off the corner of the bubble wrap and saw the back - it took me a minute, but then it was the most exciting thing ever!
She did that all the time too. She had hidden a Ninja Turtles video game in a box of Ninja Turtles cereal, and resealed it, so the box just seemed like a stocking stuffer. She's thoughtful like that, and still tries to hide things in the wrong-sized boxes, etc. so nobody can tell what they are. She's the best!
