My Husband the Deal Killer!

I love my husband....really I do..but I have to say that guy is a "Deal Killer"! I'm venting here because I know only a fellow couponer could understand my frustrations! Luckily my husband does not read this blog so I can speak freely.

Here's what I have to deal with: 

• Take this guy to the grocery store and he will pile the cart high with stuff I don't have coupons for and that we could live without until I find a great deal on it! My careful calculations for the lowest OOP and coupon clipping goes to hell in a hand basket!
   
• Take him to a local restaurant with a BOGO Entree coupon....he'll order 2 beers and an appetizer and kill the deal!
   
• Send him to the store with coupons he'll forget to use them. How do I know? I find them crumbled up with the store receipt and get an "oh, yeah I forgot you gave me those"....AAARRRGGHH!
   
• He needs a few things from Lowes? Home Depot? No problem "here's a gift card says I". I often turn in our Discover Card rewards for Gift Cards for just such occasions. He'll get home and tell me I put in on the debit card....what about the gift card I ask? Oh yeah....I forgot you gave me that....OMG!
   
• Send him to the store for ONE thing he comes home with a sack of "deals" he has found. As I'm the deal expert around here I have to tell him, Honey, that's not a deal they're selling those for half the price this week up the street. Often I let it slide because he's so freakin excited, then secretly return it when I think he won't notice and go up the street and buy it for half the price....ssssh...he doesn't know I do that. The things I do to protect his ego!

Do your husbands do the same? I realize I'm a bit fanatical when it comes to being frugal, and can be slightly obsessive with getting the lowest OOP...but this guy is killing me!

We're leaving on a.........Camper(?)!!!!

Things might be a little quiet around here for the next 10 days or so...we're leaving on a camping trip. I use the word "camping" loosely as we have a travel trailer with all the amenities!

I will be posting if Wi-Fi is available! But it's doubtful you'll see the bazillion posts a day you usually see. I'll be going through total withdrawl wondering what great deals I'll be missing out on. What can I say "Extreme Couponing and Deal Hunting" are my vices of choice.

Saddly my coupon collection is to vast and huge to haul with me, I tried the husband vetoed it. So when we end up in a grocery store two states from here I'll be shopping with out coupons,catalinas and a well laid plan for as little OOP as possible **gasp*** and breathing in a paper bag on the way back to the camper in between ranting to my husband about how much money I could have saved us if I HAD MY COUPONS WITH Me!!!!
