I know that some of you are thinking that she is banging them but I work at home so I know she is not.

What really drives me crazy is when she wants me to return something that she has ordered because it was something stupid and she should not have ordered it anyway and she tells me that she is saving us money by returning it. So, we had to spend money to have this stupid thing shipped by UPS or Fedex and now we have to spend money to send it back and somehow we are saving money.

We have had some heated words about this stupid way of saving money but she has a very stressfull job and makes a lot of money so I just let it go. She has also cut back on the stupid catalog orders. At least she doesn't keep the stupid catalog order and hide it from me.

Years ago my wife ordered a magnetic dry erase board and a cordless phone...from Fingerhut. I blew my stack. These are items that you can get just as cheaply at Walmart, minus the shipping!! She doesn't do so much of the calendar ordering, but she is quite the online shopper...at least she doesn't buy as much stupid shit as she used to...
