If you really want help....

Go to the link below. Read his book. And especially, see if there is a live event coming up near where you live. I guarantee it will help you get back on the right track. He is a dynamic and absolutely hilarious speaker. He also has a radio show - you can listen to it online or check the listings to see if it is carried on a local station.

I have been there, done that (I handle our finances so even though I don't deliberately hide things from my husband, it's easy to "sneak" things in). I love stores like Wal-Mart where you can buy all kinds of stuff and put it down under the heading of "groceries". But I am trying to do better - and Dave Ramsey's method has helped a lot. It's very simple - save your money, and don't buy anything you can't pay for with cash.

Good luck!
