Thanks everyone! Just got back from work and been reading all your responses.

I do give DH 'pocketmoney' but I give him too much. I will have to reduce the amount I think. We get all the bills/rent paid and I have enough for groceries, but I just can't manage to save on my wage alone. We save a small amount, but for our wages combined we could be saving heaps more. At least living that way isn't uncommon
I am just going to have to be way more strict, weather he likes it or not. I told him in an argument this morning that that's how it is going to be and if he doesn't like it then I suggest we get a divorce because I will no longer live like this.

Thanks again for all your replies ladies xx


Oh and Epacris, your post never showed up this morning so I didn't acknowledge it. Sorry I wasn't snobbing you
