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.

What year?
In the late 90's worked with a guy who had a reputation for meanness. I never realised quite how mean until one day I found a pile of old, blank diaries the top one of which had a sticky label bearing the hand-written words "possibly 2009"?

Edit: he also counted his tea bags and brought the correct number for each term (this was in a school). Oh and he once gleefully regaled me with how he managed to cheat his wife and daughter out of the currency exchange commission money by buy his currency at a 'commission-free' seller.
