MORE (AND MORE)

Could you help me with these sentences with MORE in them? Could tell me how to make them grammatical?

It's getting more and more expensive by the day.
She will have spent more time with her husband's/carrying her husband's last name than her maiden name.
The more people tell me not to do it, the more I want to do it and earlier for that matter.

Thank you
