Expensive Chicken Breasts

So, I'm a little pissed off right now and since this is a community for support, I thought that I'd post my plight here.

I second what wesleysgirl says! There is NO reason why they can't do their own shopping. If they want things you haven't bought, then they can go out, buy them, and put them away with a label saying "this is mine, no one else eat it."

Well, I do all of the shopping because I'm the only one who has a car. But, I agree - if they don't like what I buy - they can do it themselves.

Have you thought about maybe having a day each week where the three of you all hit the supermarket together? Personally I would just say tough crap if they don't have a car. It's not your responsibiity. But you can always offer to take them with you and if they don't want to go, that was their decision.

There isn't really a time that is good for all three of us to go to the store together - two of us have jobs while we go to school. I'm on fairly good terms with them both most of the time - it was just this recent arrangement and reaction that set me off.

They could still give you the money for the special items - with the understanding that they're paying for it and it's *theirs*, and it isn't a "split the cost/split the eating" food item.

Sharing food with roommates was always a hassle, for me. I like being married much better. :-)
