We agreed not to spend any more than I had been spending on groceries, but it didn't take long for the stockpile to outgrow our tiny pantry. He built a beautiful cupboard to match my beautiful kitchen cupboards with his own hands, and even though he had never done such a thing, he kept working until it looked just right! I think seeing it fill up with products we use so much really got him excited, because now he goes with me every time I coupon shop. I make him out a list of items and he goes and collects all those run-of-the-mill items that don't take any consideration, just time to collect them all up. He tries new products and gives me his reviews without complaining. Just evaluates the product very professionally. Great when I get hold of free products we've never used before. Best of all, he carries all my shopping from the truck into the house whenever we shop! My DH really lives up the "Dear" in DH and I want him to know how proud of him I am. :)
