[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were poor for the first 10 years of my life, but those years had an affect on me for sure. I'm constantly fighting intrusive thoughts that we're one paycheck away from living under a bridge - could not be further from the truth but I still can't shake the notion. I hoard takeout napkins and condiments. I re-use foil when possible. [b]I turn my ketchup bottles upside down to get the last drop[/b]. I hate that I have such an unhealthy relationship with money. [/quote] I'm UMC and grew up UMC but I'm so weird about using every last drop of things in bottles/jars/cans. I don't know why. I'll add water to my shampoo and conditioner (but not dressing!) to make them last as long as possible. I'll scrape the inside of jars forever to get every single drop. I'll bang the ketchup bottle on the counter for five minutes and then leave it upside down for another time and then use a tiny spatula to get it all out.[/quote]
