You deserved it

Screw it, wrap it and put it under the tree anyway. Teach him a lesson in patience.

You have excellent present-choosing skills, OP! Hopefully you can sell it or exchange it :)

That sucks that you spent so much money on it...but maybe one of you can do a good deed and donate it to charity or something! Not only will your father still have a nice jacket, but you can smile knowing you've made someone's day!

#7, she means donate the jacket. Not get another $500 and donate it.

#20 Donating the jacket would be the same as donating $500.

Aw, man, that sucks. I guess you get to keep this one, then.

Doesn't hurt to have a backup of a favorite jacket especially one that expensive.

I agree. More often than not, when it's time to replace it, you won't be able to find one exactly like it and you'll be glad to have a second. Or there is always Craigslist or EBay

Can't you sell it in eBay? You may end up making some extra money!

I thought that... You shouldn't buy yourself something at Christmas. I understand it's a lot of money, but he should've hinted that he wanted it, as opposed to buying it... Besides, it's not that far away from Christmas, I doubt he wouldn't be able to buy it after (that is, if he didn't get it- which he was going to)

I have done that, to my dad. I told him "Tough. You kept hinting that you want it, and then you go and buy it for yourself? Well, now you have two..."
