Spending money

[RLC12345678]

My hubby and I have a joint checking account. We both work and we are both conservative with our money so neither of us has to discuss with the other before we buy things we want. Big ticket items, that's another question. We definately discuss big ticket items. We know not to say anything to the other about things the other buys because we both work and we both should be able to have the freedom to buy things that we want, within reason. I am in charge of balancing the checkbook, so I know what my limits are. My hubby is not a shopper anyway, so we don't really have to worry about him shopping and going overboard.
