Want in on a secret? Now that you question her on her spending, from now on she will hide the spending from you. You'll see a decrease in "bags o' stuff" with no actual decrease in new stuff in closet.

I suspect in a couple months OP will start this thread:

They say it was on sale but have no idea what the "price" was the day before.

Me and the wife have separate accounts that we put a little money in each month that we can spend on whatever we want without the other person bitching. We don't even have access to each other's account. Everything else is in joint accounts

Separate checking. Joint family for the kids and bills. Joint savings.

Tell her to shut her hole and know her role if she gives you any lip.

That's better than the house looking like the inside of a Neiman Marcus. Get involved, but not too involved. Rules like a single item purchase over $100 or so should be discussed. Unless you're afraid she would bitch about your $500 gun purchase.

Pick your battles.

She's just distracting you from the limp she's walking with after going airtight with a gang of BBC.

Less than a month after living together I made my future wife do the ultimate walk of shame and return a bunch of bullshite to the store. She still does it occasionally but not near as bad as most women. I'm afraid it's too late for you.

Then when you ask where'd that come from?, She'll just tell you she's had it a while and doesn't remember.

Good luck!

Bitch and bitch and bitch about it until she will stop buying bullshite just because she don't want to have to hear you bitch about it.
