My brother and I used to tell my parents from that day on that every comic that we bought was only 25 cents and part of the sale. They bought the story for a while, but when the store finally closed we just strait up lied to them and never told them about what we bought.
It got worse with toys...

My Mom's actually okay with me collecting comics, because she knows how much they're worth. Also, when I get my IDW Transformers, Doctor Who and Catwoman comics every month, I also pick up Spiderman for my little brother, which is pretty much the only thing he reads, so that scores major brownie points with Mom.
She was a kind of pissed off when I first started my Transformers collection. She had a fit when she caught me buying Robot Replicas Frenzy at Zellers, but she's warmed up the idea recently. She even asked me how TF Con went and wanted to see all my toys, spending an hour trying to Transform Target-exclusive Movie Starscream. And, of course, she has absolutely no problem with the Transformers my boyfriend buys for me
