Hubby and couponing

Started by Tori 7/14/2010 2:41:26 PM

Ok fellow Q-poners!  I've got one for you.  Does your husband/wife get frustrated and angry b/c you eat and sleep couponing?  My husband gets so angry if I'm on the computer couponing by the time he gets home.  He loves that I'm saving money but doesn't want me on the computer in the evenings. 

I am trying to honor him by getting done before he gets home from work but sometimes I just can't get it completed.  How about you?

My husband loves my coupon addiction.  He does roll his eyes sometimes when we run out of some non-essential & I refuse to buy w/o a good coupon and  sale!!!  But, he loves to brag about my savings too.


At first my husband didn't like it, but now he is my own cheerleader. I think it helps when the spouses are included!! Like today at King Sooper's I told him what kind of tags to look for and when he found something, he got all excited!! It really does help!! I am on the computer a lot, but when he is home I try not to do couponing to much. I do most of mine during the day or later at night!

Maybe you guys can come to a compromise.  For example maybe one night a week is kid and dad night.  You can work on your couponing and dad and the kiddos can do something fun together.  Another idea is maybe you can work on any couponing between certain hours at night.  At our house I finish my couponing after my little one goes to bed.

My husband loves me couponing.  He sees how much it saves our money.  He loves it when I show him the receipt and how much I saved.  Maybe your husband will be more on board if you show him receipts.

Thanks ladies.  It isn't a big problem, I just try really hard to be finished before he gets home.  He does love the money I'm saving.  I have shown him the receipts and talk about what I've saved.  I think he is just sick of hearing about couponing. 

Thanks for the advice.cheeky
