It's rather obvious your parents never collected anything worthwhile or got absorbed in a hobby for more than a little while.
You could defend yourself by stating that there are a lot worse things you could be spending money on....
It may not be an ideal solution, but I would suggest a PO Box. My parents have since turned a blind eye on most of
my anime spending, but if the knew the amount that has left my account in the last month, their eyesight would improve

same everywhere, but for a box that's about 4 VHS tapes high costs about $36 for 6mo. @ the local branch.
In my case it helped that I had "rented" the box to run registration for OhayoCon... |
