tightest housemate on earth
TH (tight housemate) wasn't poor, he was just cheap.

he used to go through the bin each night and take out any food anyone had thrown away, put it on his shelf and eat it at leisure.
Chuck an orange juice carton away? he'd take it out the bin, swish it out with water and drink the contents.
Chuck out any meat because it was past its sell by date? TH would rescue it, and eat it sometime during the following week (meaning it was even more mouldy).

I've still no idea how he achieved it, but he managed to work out how much loo roll each person in the house used per visit. he told me I was using too much. I just laughed.

I could go on, but you get the idea.
