Do you think the husband REALLY wanted it and that's why he waited for his wife to gift it to him?

I have a crap ton of things I really want but would never choose to spend the money on myself and wait for it as a gift. That's basically the entire point of gifts imo, getting things you want but can't justify spending the money on.
