    Our family is paying for everything and they didn’t set us a limit so that’s fantastic!

    Me! When he spends money all the says is “it’s just money.” We need to save money for the wedding!

    Oh man both and neither- we are great at sticking to a budget when material items are involved but we have a tough time when it comes to food

    Normally we don’t have a budget but I think I’m the one who tries to spend money on what we need first instead of spending it on junk.

    I AM!!!!! I've been own my own a lot longer than he has and am a lot more budget conscious in general because of that.

    I am more strict about sticking to the budget. He does not even know what budget means .. But he does allow me to manage the money because he is not in denial about his money management.

    Him. Him him him. I see things and am like I want that...and he has to ask do you really want it or do you just like it? Though I usually am anal about tracking...

    He is, but we are both pretty savvy when it comes to spending money.

    We both do. Were both really strict on budgeting because we have a four monthbpld daughter and we refuse to run out of money incase she needs things, and if we need something or a bill is due.
