I try to never ask DH to go to the store because he buys way more than I ask him to. Last night it was raining and I didn't want to pack up the kids so I asked him to stop on his way home to get 3 things - green onion, sour cream, and bacon (baked potatos for dinner). He comes in with 4 bags of stuff, so proud of himself - corn flakes were only $2 a box, great price he says. I about had a heart attack. I haven't paid that much for cereal in a year and I had coupons for corn flakes!!!!

What should have been a $5 transaction was about $25. Sheesh!! Guess it's my fault for foolishly thinking he'd follow instructions
