[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 574179, member: 84"] Janet, I did my own savings thing........usually without Fred knowing. (if he knew he'd snitch from it every time he thought he needed money) I had my stashes for xmas and my stashes for emergencies and my plain ol' I didn't spend it so there it goes into the stash.....stash. He did contribute because I'd up the food budget to cover what I wanted put into certain stashes, then I'd shop sales ect and put what extra he gave me in with what I didn't spend on food that paycheck. After several times of being faced with an unexpected emergency and me popping up with money that should not have been there to cover said emergency, well, he knew I had my stashes. He didn't know where they were of course but often he'd help me add to them too. Until he figured out I was stashing away cash he just thought I was a genius at stretching a dollar, which I am in many respects, but even I can't pull money out of thin air. LOL Fred was the type of guy that action spoke louder to him than words. If he could see the process work he did better than me just trying to explain it to him. Know what I mean?? [/QUOTE]
