Husband waters down my shampoo bottles... what is wrong with him and how do I retaliate?

I've been noticing my shampoo has been diluted lately, as if someone is putting water in it. No - I don't buy from the really cheap discount stores that do that to their products.





The shampoo I buy is only a couple dollars a bottle, not $30 like some high-maintenance women.





I called my husband out on it, and he admitted to watering down my shampoo with the intent of saving money!





He also thinks I use too much toothpaste and complains about how fast we go through it.





What do I do?





We have average income, average spending limits, no financial troubles.Husband waters down my shampoo bottles... what is wrong with him and how do I retaliate?
I dont know what you can do but that is sick....how is it even helping to save money if it's watered down? It just won't stay in your hair then. You have to explain to him that he can either save about 25 cents or have a wife with ugly hairHusband waters down my shampoo bottles... what is wrong with him and how do I retaliate?
Well, you could: Begin watering down his beer; watering down HIS shampoo; not stocking some of his preferences, (all in the interests of saving money, of course) Suggesting that HE economize on his stuff, and leave your stuff alone; (Why didn't he just SAY something, instead of being sneaky about it?) Offer to: stop brushing your teeth (not much fun necking with you then :)); stop shampooing your hair altogether, (want to nuzzle, sweetie?) Suggest he develop a slightly more mature way of addressing his concerns and you'd be more receptive to his point of view... I'm pretty sure you know better than I do how to deal with him. Um, could you keep us posted on the developments? This is fun. I really want to know what happens next! Go get 'em.Also, looking at your avatar here, and as one female to another, I know what I'm looking at -wow- Is he Nuts?? Why would he want you to be less??? Cuz tampering with grooming products will not lead to a better you....-Have you noticed that Nair is the front-runner in suggestions? Verrry tricky folk here...}:%26gt;
my father used to be like that...he probity has always been like that with other things. there are people in the world that for them they rather save money like that than spend it. just tell him to leave your stuff alone
actually by watering down shampoo will cost more money in the long run...because u will have to use twice as much to get a good lather. i know case I've tried rinsing out what little bit is left in a bottle with water and it doesn't later very well when u do.
Find something that he likes and do the same, the first thing that comes to mind is if he drinks water down his liqor and tell him that you want to conserve it and see how he likes a taste of his own medicine.
Replace his beer with Bud Light. (ewwwwwww)
You might want to consider some kind of counseling. If he wasn't like this at first, you need to determine what has caused this change in his behavior. It could be something very simple, or you could really have a problem on your hands. Sudden changes in financial attitudes generally indicate that something else is going on somewhere.
it sounds like he has a fear of being poor


a good thing to do would be to if he used bar soap you could run it under water for a long time and then he will have a small cake of soap to wash with
retaliation is definately in order.





- next time you cook, give him only 1/2 of what he would normally eat - save $ on the groceries





- wash his dirty clothes in the sink and hang them over the towel rack to dry - save $ on the laundry





- turn off the lights when he is reading or turn off the tv when he is watching it - save $ on electric
put nair in his
substitute preparation h for his toothpaste.
you should tell him that the main ingredient in low end shampoo's is WATER.............he is pretty much just turning your shampoo into water and no poo! Ask him if he prefer's you smelling pretty or if he thinks greasy hair smells better?? You could retaliate by watering down his pepsi or beer or coffee??? maybe he will stop it then.
Put viscous lidocane in his jergins he will think he broke something when it goes numb any nurse should be able to get some for you
I think you need to seriously think about changing husbands. I didn't realize toothpaste and shampoo were life's little pleasures.
Put Nair in his shampoo bottle - that'll save him money in the future.
poor him a nice cold beer after you water it down
Buy your own, label it, and tell him you love him too much to argue about some trivial bull crap. I think the 10 dollars is much cheaper that the grief and discord if you retaliate.
Stop using shampoo and toothpaste for a week. That ought to show him. While at it, go the whole nine yards and save on soap too. You might also consider hiding the toilet paper to ';save'; some more.
Hide your shampoo and anything else he is tampering with. Not to say anything bad about your husband but is he under some sort of stress? He may be doing these things as a way to deal with it.
That's just wrong. Try feeding him cheap food and see how he likes it. Or if that won't work think of something he holds near and dear and sabotage it in the name of saving money. He'll get the point.
replace some of his with Nair that'll teach the sob
Start watering down his bottles of liquor - the prescious whiskey, bourbon or rum or vodka.
Tell him: Let me kiss you after I don't brush my teeth for a couple of days... Then you can also pay the dentist bill when my teeth rot.....As for the shampoo... Water down his beer and tell you you're saving him money..

Try watering down his gas and his beer!';
