Re: So what was the total damage...
james bhaand bhai,
it is not damage if you see the up side: that you and bhabi can shop and save with coupons at this of the year, you can spend less due to better deals, if nothing else, you can save tax by using store coupons.
kafayit shaari is necessary, and there is no sense in buying multiple items or things that you or your family may never use…cant speak for handling expenses with kids, in happy married life, but what i do know is that with being savvy around the holidays shopping, you and your spouse will in fact be happy that you saved money by purchasing things when their prices are considerably dropped. :>
best,
Dushwari
