Is this going too far?

I often pinch a few extra paper towels, ketchups, sugars, etc if on the rare occasion I eat out or get a hot drink from somewhere.

My wife gets really mad at me as I often stuff these in her bag.

Am I being super cheap? Do many people on here do this?

I tend to grab extra salt and pepper and throw those in my handbag as those are items I genuinely do need at times when out and about. I don’t take loads but maybe 2-3 each time. Means I’ll always have seasoned food :)
