He bought the house, pays the utilities, ins, car ins., my health ins, but I pay the $2,500 dedutible of that, my own medicine, everything personal, even the expensives on my automobile including gas, so I don't go grocery shopping, give him the list and let him do it, BUT, he LOVES to eat.

I don't blame you, i am trying to build my savings back up to where it was before, i put 200 a month back into it. it's a couple thousand now, but i will increase it soon, i have my mother finally paid off, i just have one more payment on Mikes DUI and i'll have an extra 475.00 a month yahooo... that will go towards Micah and the savings account for a rainy day.. and i have tons of those.. But i do give my husband credit for one thing, i get his paychecks! and he don't care what i do with them. i type out a payment schedule each month a stick to it, i am very good with bills, and any extra money goes for Baby stuff, clothes etc. and we sneak out once in a blue moon to eat.. or i'll bring home a pizza on Fridays.
But maybe you guys sould sit down and talk about your bills and stuff you want to get for the house maybe start a little fund or a savings account and when you get enough money in it go buy what you want or need. That's how i did it... i saved all my life for one day owning a house. i worked everyday!!! busted my ass off. and i have all new funiture and appliances to show for it.. i am proud of myself!! i did it on my own...
