I too was going to guess that you asked a question that had a loophole. Clothes =/= shoes, so she quoted accurately. Maybe she should start lying UPWARDS. So she says "$800" then you see the charge for $600 and you'll be happy

Well, she could have just told him "more than you wanted me to and less than I wanted to.
But like noname I'm divorced and have had full and final say so on my own finances for years. I have the tendency to be a spender but try to save. I married a spender back when I was much much better at saving and let his influence destroy the saver aspects of my personality. At least now, when money is unwisely spent, I only have myself to blame and there is no fight about why money in the bank meant for rent was spent on entry fee for a dart match and a new set of unneeded darts.

Archie I am married to Mr Cheap who also also hates to spend money. He is perfectly happy with his two pairs of shoes and two suits. He doesn't understand why women need so many clothes and shoes. He doesn't understand why I can't get my whole wardrobe at Walmart. We are talking about kids though. My kids tear, cut, stain, poop, and throw up on the $20 dollar outfit just as well as they do on the $2 garage sale outfit. I don't mind throwing out a $2 outfit that has been ruined. To me, throwing out a $20 outfit after one wear is, well, wasteful (unless it's a new christmas/easter outfit) Especially, since money is a finite resource for us. DH works part time and does the grocery shopping, etc with our kids. (Just 1 now, during the school year.) The check out ladies don't give a rip if my kids wore the same shoes or not that month. Neither does our daycare provider or preschool teacher.

It reminds me of that kid's show that has the annoying theme song, and I sing it whenever he posts:
I'm just a kid who's four, Each day I grow some more! I like exploring, I'm Caillou So many things to do, Each day there's something new I'll share them with you I'm Caillou My world is turning, changing each day! With mommy and daddy and finding my way- Growing up is not so tough Except when I've had enough But there's lots of fun stuff I'm Caillou, Caillou, Caillou...

I know that my actions have helped create the system we have, but it still pisses me off when what she tells me is that much different than what she actually spent. Usually the two numbers are closer together. Ok Archie! Recall that time she told you she spent $400 on pair of Manollo shoes after watching Sex and the City and you punched her in the face and she ended up with broken jaw and her leg in cast? She was honest with you and paid for it. You are just a fire dragon when it comes to money!!!

When I see his screenname I even pronounce it Caillou. I just wish he'd make it easy on us and change it to that. "Cawaiu" bugs me because I don't know how to pronounce it in my head.

I actually couldn't remember how to spell Caillou because I've now associated it with "Cawaiu" and I would have sworn that is how the cartoon spelled it.
(My kids aged out of that show more than 5 years ago.)

Yes, I have been married, and still am.
I guess I'm weird that I don't lie to my husband. I don't need to.

BTW Archiiiiiiiiiiie! I know what she did this shopping.... She thought you asked how much she spent PER PERSON!!! So shill out. You are good! And her math is fine. You've got yourself a great broad. Smart and funny.
