I'm not a leftovers guy and didn't think he was either. Hopefully, this is an indication of him saving money now that he is working and not using my CC.

One of my mother's favorite stories to tell is how she would always buy quality shoes for me when I was growing up because of my flat feet. When I started working, I decided I wanted more of a variety than just the shoes she bought. So I went to Foot Locker to buy my new shoes and realized that just one pair of the shoes I wanted would cost me more the 3/4 of my paycheck. I then went to Payless and bought two for $9.99.
