cheapest in what catagory? in fashion, in fine dining, in spending on your truck????



i am cheap in my fashion sense, walmart/costco/winners [i think it's called tjmaxx or something like that in the usa] for clothing,



going out to get a sub sandwich is fine dining to me...



now on the truck, i don't even want to start thinking about what i am spending on it...

Cheap in however you define it. Like someone who washes and reuses ziploc bags.



Or cuts their own hair with a switchblade.



Or gets their clothes from Goodwill exclusively.



Generally, cheap is a person who HAS money, but does EVERYTHING they can to avoid spending a single penny.....

I am...

... to a point. Somtimes I'll fabricate something instead of buying it. I do after all have a torch and a welder ,but sometimes it's not worth the aggrevation ... Doug

Cheap

I am as cheap as they come.



I can squeeze a dime out of a penny with just my a**.

Please dont demonsrate... . I'll take your word.



I'm pretty cheap, but my wife is really cheap.

She'll drive 5 miles out of the way to get gas for . 02 a gallon less.

It's not that she wont buy anything, it's just she wants if for the best price possible.

I suppose I'm like that a little too.

I do that with the blue paper Scotts towels. Very tough. Accidentally had some go through the wash (were in my pockets) and weren't damaged one bit.

You wanna talk about cheap



I am a full time college student only working like 10 hours/week right now, we'll talk cheap



Hell, instead of paying for cafeteria food etc we have cook outs on my buddies tail gate everynight, right in front of our dorm



I'll use $25 in gas to go home and save $1. 75 in laundramat fees

just finished my driveway . I did it in concrete (16 yards) and mixed it myself. went thru almost 95 bags (at 94 lbs each). I saved about $700. I'm cheap... and stupid... and full of energy. its a deadly combo.

Hey, I reuse the Scott blue paper towels, too.

I use zip loc bags about 5 times (at least for sandwiches for lunch).

I've gotten pedal pads off vehicles in junkyards.

Goodwill refuses my old shirts and jeans. (some hirts I still wear rent fit for the "rag bag. "

I'll live on bologna and ramen noodles so I can buy goodies for the pickup. (or fuel, sometimes)

I prefer used CDs, movies, etc. Already broken in.

When my socks get holes, I turn them over so the hole is on a differnt toe, or my heel isnt poking out.

When my underwear wore out, I just went commando. (you all just HAD to know that, huh?)

I buy higher mileage vehicles to get the price break (have to change fluids, brakes, etc either way).

I like to get my money's worth.

Wonder why, I thought the torn ratty look was now the "in" thing.



Most of my jeans are like that. Some have patches on them. Not that I can't afford them, I just like to get the most out of them.



I had a pair of insulated bibs and when I finally tossed them, they were getting so bad that when I caught the corner of one of the back pockets, I tore half of it off with mi PINKY finger!
