Married life comes with its fair share of ups and downs, and the occasional quarrel is to be expected. Usually, a sincere apology and a hug can patch things up, but sometimes, a disagreement cuts deep enough to make you want to get a little petty.

That’s what one woman on Reddit resorted to after her husband accused her of being wasteful when she spent $950 on their monthly grocery run. In response, she decided to stop using and wearing all his gifts to show she was done with his complaints about money. Now, she’s left wondering if she went too far.
