Argument stemming from husband's Perrier sparkling water addiction. Who's in the wrong?

My husband goes out into the freezing cold garage in the evening to get my liter of Whole Foods sparkling water and then he stocks up the indoor fridge before work if my supply is depleted. I notice these gestures every single time. For a happier life, be more like my husband!

You've got a good man there

This is the definition of uncouth. For shame. Tsk tsk.

Apart from sending him grocery shopping.....what is your problem?! Send him to Aldi, they have it pretty cheap there. You realize around Europe we drink this like regular water, or like Americans drink soda? Is there nothing else to argue about? What a lucky and stupid woman you are.

LOL. Indeed! Sparkling water addiction! I wonder if OP has Pepsi addiction and drinks Big Gulp every day, but that is not an addiction!

He buys them himself, lugs them himself. Done.

To be clear, it's not the 6-pack of tiny bottles, I'm talking big 1L bottle tables are supposed to share. I was raised that sparkling water is more-so a palate cleanser, it's uncouth to lap it up like you just finished a sportball match. Drives me up a wall to see all those empty 1L bottles stacking up.

Are you trying to be funny? If so, it is working!

Well, they are.

Ha! This is my DH, too. He opens 3 or 4 a day, fully drinks maybe two of them, and the rest I find half empty around the house. The pileup of cans is ridiculously wasteful. But he used to drink Pepsi, which is poison. So I keep my mouth shut.

I am just like your DH!! Perrier is just so good. I have been drinking it since I was about 10 years old.

Well, that view of sparkling water is...unique. I don’t think you will find it widely shared. My goal is 2 L a day.

This and the Perrier thing would drive me nuts. Use a glass and have some self control.

OP, surely you do something he finds wasteful and indulgent that he over looks? Regular manicures, Starbucks, Ubering when you could Metro...etc?
