It’s true that you can’t make others change, but you can help them want to change. I was able to convince my guy that clipping coupons, scouring sales, and watching out for wasteful use of utilities wasn’t a waste of time by “showing him the money.” I made a point of showing him grocery store receipts that print the percentage saved by sale purchases and coupon deductions–the bottom line spoke louder than any nagging I could do.
