If your brother is mature enough to be married, he needs to be mature enough to not mooch off of family. Personally, I would stand up to them and let them know that it really isn't right to treat you like that. However, if you don't want to deal with the confrontation, you could always start making excuses about why they can't come over that night or that you don't have any money for them to borrow. You could just "jokingly" say something like "come on guys, you're eating/drinking us out of house and home." You could reverse it and start going to THEIR place and eating their food. These are all really passive aggressive ideas, though, the best thing really would be to just tell them that this situation is not working out, if they want to come over every once in a while, that's ok, but they HAVE to bring their own food and drinks and that you will not lend them money anymore. It's really not ok for them to take advantage of you like that.

As long as you aren't the person responsible for providing food and money to them, it's out of your control. If you are that person, stop feeding them and loaning them money!!! DUH!!!!
