So after our little fiasco with the car the other day I put the hammer down and took control of our finances for the first time in 4 years. I have given the wife very strict spending limits on all of our non bill related expenses like Food, Gas, etc. She however doesn't seem to understand the importance of these limits already seeing as she overspent on groceries this week already. What can I do to get her more on board with this budget without crossing the line and upsetting her? I need to be strict about it and stick to it myself as well so I won't be buying parts for the car until the money is in the bank to cover our life if things go south.
