This is my first post. I take my MIL shopping on a weekly basis, as she doesn't drive and can't carry a full week's shop on the bus. I have been on a seriously tight budget since September, but now everything has calmed down and I am mostly financially stable again. We went to the supermarket yesterday, and I always buy cheaper alternatives due to previously being on a budget. Anyway, I bought some brand name items and a few treats we don't usually have, and every time I put something in the trolley that wasn't a budget item, my MIL commented. "Ooh olives and meats? Fancy"
"Kelloggs brand coco pops? That's a luxury"
"You're buying steak?
At the till was the best one...."omg don't faint its double what you usually spend"
Not only is this totally embarrassing, but I feel its not her business what I do. So my question is, AIBU to tell her to shut her cakehole and concentrate on what's in her own trolley? She is very easily offended, so it will be a massive thing if I say something.
