[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 287737, member: 6705"] I know the feeling only too well. A running joke between me and husband is if I hadn't met him, I'd be rich. Due to the amount of my own $ I have spent on the kids - not just stuff, but their well being. But I would have found somewhere else to spend it, I'm sure. Now that husband is working full time, things will get a bit easier. Poor guy has been in and out of work since I met him, mostly due to the kids' mother. But in the week since he started working - the depression has lifted. It's not gone, but it's better. He still hasn't gotten his first check, but the improvement in his mood means I don't have to do as much around the house, which makes me willing to do what I need to. The Subway thing struck a nerve. difficult child 1 has been begging for Subway for a couple of weeks. And I am working on that. We all love it... But it's hard. About coupons - I can't find many for the stuff we need, either. Name brand with a good coupon is usually still more expensive than the generic... [/QUOTE]
