Maybe I should have posted it here, I posted it in need vs want, but here it is again it makes more sense here. Anyone have any ideas on how I can convince my wife to control spending? She seems to think she has a need to shop. We're tapped out, every month whatever I pay down on our credit card she's charged it right back up. Usually charging more than I pay down.

I've tried to explain to her that if we can control our spending for 6 months, we can pay off a credit card, and then we can loosen the purse strings a little, but she won't budge. She says I'm just trying to down grade her lifestyle.

Help!!!
I replied on your other post, but definately a good long talk about hard topics is in order. Good luck!
