Ideas for feeding family of 4 with full fridge and $16 left in grocery budget for the month? And working with a less than frugal spouse...

I think you're imagining the situation is much worse than it really is, you're blowing it out of proportion. You told me that it's gross. I'm not telling her what to eat. I didn't tell her she shouldn't have bought the coconut milk. I just came here, on reddit, with my initial shock, for suggestions on how to best handle the situation. Didn't know I was in for so much assumption and judgement by the likes of you.

Student loans, car payment, and did a little bit of spending on credit cards these last couple months. But we'll have it paid off within a year and a half if we stick to it. We've already paid off a big chunk over the last year.

It's not some crazy amount of debt that we can't handle. We could just pay the minimums and have it all paid of in about 3 years instead. We'd rather be done with it, both of us, not just me. It's a choice that we both agreed to.

We do have a happy marriage, this hasn't turned into an argument in my household. Why the hell would you assume this will lead to a divorce? You, ma'am, are ridiculous. I say good day.
