Perhaps this has been asked before but no one so far seems to have heard of this situation. Over the past 4 years I've built a somewhat extensive stockpile. It is all contained in the garage on 4 shelving units 4 ft wide.
Tomorrow I will be filing for divorce. The husband moved out last weekend. I know he is annoyed by the stockpile and sees it as somehow relating to the divorce process. He has taken pictures and done some sort of an inventory of it. He has no real knowledge of shelf prices or OOP prices.
Does anyone have experience with a similar situation? And no the divorce is not because of couponing... unless my couponing somehow impacted his zipper functions.
Any insight is appreciated!
I know that personally, if my SO and I were to split up I would leave him some stuff. I would leave him all of the men's items I have (body washes, men's razors, etc) and a couple months supply of other stuff. Sure it will make a dent in your stockpile but you can always replenish and it's really not worth fighting over in my opinion :)
Oh, and since it was "zipper" issues, I'd give him my entire stock of KY (remember when that gave us overage and everyone got a ton of it??) and I'd tell him to have a ball and don't forget to lube up! LOL
Oh, I'd also punch him in the head and give him a couple of my boxes of Tylenol Precise patches and some Bayer to relieve the pain. LOL!!
You are funny! I didn't stock up on the free condoms a while back. Not that he would need those since he got a vasectomy (that I still don't know about) earlier this year. Yes, he is a first class a$$.
I am not worried about keeping the stockpile all to myself. It is easy enough to replenish over time, and honestly if he took half it would be perfectly fine. He does not understand how I can "buy" something and leave the store with the same or more money.

My SO doesn't understand couponing, nor does he really care about it. He likes that I have a stockpile though. If I knew he didn't care about the stockpile or only wanted it to spite me then I'd probably fight for it. LOL

I guess I should explain my contradiction in replies...I said it's not worth fighting over but then I said I would. In my case, I wouldn't fight over it if I knew he truly wanted some of the stuff. But if I thought he was only wanting it to tick me off, that's when I'd fight for it. LOL
I can only imagine he thinks it is going to mean $$$ in HIS pocket or somehow to screw me.
We have 2 kids and he emptied both accounts and left me with a stack of bills. Usual story... The only difference is that I expected him to do it and am not totally unprepared.
If you can afford it put them in a storage unit. I am going thru the same right now, luckily the kids and I have a new place. Pictures or not he can't really do anything about that and what judge is going to make you if you say you no longer have it
