    for the past 3 years - money was tight - him on PhD scholarship, me working here and there then going back to school. He graduated with PhD - now making really good money and I graduated working as an office manager in a dental clinic. So we finally have money - and he says I hope you are going to stop couponing and start shopping only at better grocery stores. I shop at No Frills - price match everything there, plus Target and Gt and Fortinos "the better store" he says is so over priced - only thing I buy there are sales and their meat.

    He does understand that couponing & price matching helped us save a lot of money and now our pay cheques are going into savings cause I have a mini stock pile of cat food, human food and beauty products.
    Glad he is in Rankin Inlet Nunavut for 5 days working.

    An habit is an habit no? If you want to continu to couponning maybe with more pleasure than a before necessity why stopping?Saving could go on things like movie and travel so it is still a win-win no?

    Sent you more details in a PM, but my DH was the worst for complaining about coupons and PM. "Takes too long, coupons are only for poor people blah blah blah." You mention a stereotype, he said it. Start tracking your savings and put it in a fund towards something you love. Ours is a trip fund. The couponing and PMs pay for our vacation every year. That shut DH up for good lol.

    I think it's perception. He finally feels like you both can stop pinching and scraping to save and relax a bit. He probably thinks that you'll appreciate less work (couponing) now.

    It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.

    People who still use the wrong coupons on the wrong product when it clearly has size restrictions. This will never end

    Needed a spice for dinner tonight. I figured My best bet would be the alsham market down the street. Garam masala was $3 so I purchased it.
    Then I had to walk to the big way owned market up my street for tomatoes.They recently added an ethnic section and what so I see?!? they had the EXACT same package of Garam Masala for $.99!!

    GRRR.
