'[You're] cut off': Solo-earning husband catches his wife spending $1000+ on takeout every month, he retaliates by kneecapping her financially and canceling all of their credit cards

This man caught his stay-at-home wife throwing away his salary check, spending thousands every month because she was too lazy to eat the food in their well-stocked fridge. 

Most of us are taught from a young age that you pay for convenience. Like any service, when something is prepared, delivered, and brought straight to your door, you're likely going to be paying for it in spades because of the convenience of that item. In an era where there's an app for everything, we've all had moments of weakness where we spend $85 on a delivered sandwich from the shop down the street because we're too lazy or tired to go pick it up ourselves, but the woman in our next story had grown accustomed to ordering takeout once–sometimes twice–per day to sustain herself. 

Despite a fridge full of healthy foods, this woman swooned at the idea of making her own meals. But when her husband caught her spending $1000+ every month on takeout, he had to draw a line in the sand–and with the credit card company. Read on for the whole story of a guy who was forced to take drastic measures to keep their collective savings accounts from getting fully drained due to convenience fees.
