Yes, I know, I shouldn't be very grateful. But. I do most of the grocery shopping etc and have a good handle on our finances etc. I budget quite strictly so that we can save for occasional holidays/house updates etc. Occasionally I'll ask him to swing by the shops to pick up some bread or milk. Next thing I know he comes home with flowers for me (very sweet but this is from our joint grocery account) plus bagged salad (we never buy bagged salad), bananas (we'll have 6 in the fruit bowl - there's only us), and posh ice cream that blows our budget out the water. And he forgot the milk!
