This is a question Parsimony

Hullo tapirs, guffs Richard McBeef off the internet. One of my brother's friends once cycled from one side of London to the other to get some free lightbulbs from a condemned building, a 6-hour round trip. Tell us about the meanest, stingiest penny-pinching you've witnessed.

Tony
Known amongst us as Tony the tightwad.
He would count the number of matches in a box and if there was less than the 'average contents 48' he would take them back and complain.
He would watch a pint being poured, wait for it to settle and if it was so much a millimetre under the line would ask them to top it up properly.
He once told us the story of paying £30 for a prostitute and delaying his finish for half an hour to make sure he got his moneys worth.
But the one thing that sticks to mind the most was a group of us sitting eating chips on the seafront after a hefty nights drinking.
One of the girls threw up up, quite a lot of it went into her chip bag.
She put the bag on the ground at which Tony picked it up, muttered something along the lines of waste not want not and proceeded to eat the chips.
We were gagging and complaining and all he could say was 'hey man there was at least a quids worth of chips in there'
