He also makes comments about not buying more meat until we use up what is in the freezer. He does not understand the rule of stocking up when on sale. He gets mad when he sees how much stuff I have stocked in the cupboard, saying there is too much food, we don't need all that etc. etc. He'd rather wait until he needs something and pay full price. He doesn't care how much I'm saving, just sees that we have too much stuff. I have been trying to cut back on our monthly bill for a year now. I have brought it down some but nowhere near what some of you pay. There's only 3 of us (ds 14 yr.) and I am trying to keep it under $100/wk. for everything including HBA.
Sorry, didn't mean to vent but it does get frustrating. | Wait a minute... I didnt know my boyfriend had a twin. That sounds EXACTLY like him. On top of that it's a huge issue for him to even drop me off at the grocery store. Oh yeah and it's MY money I'm paying with and I'm not even working... yeah I know, I'm stupid.
