This is a question Tightwads

There's saving money, and there's being tight: saving money at the expense of other people, or simply for the miserly hell of it.

Tell us about measures that go beyond simple belt tightening into the realms of Mr Scrooge.

my old boss
A boss at an old workplace was tight beyond belief, but only regarding certain things. He would lash out on a fancy new car every couple of years (high-end saloons and 4x4`s) yet once when I asked him next time he was at a suppliers to pick up a pack of new blades for the workshop stanley knives, he pointed me in the direction of the whetstone and told me to sharpen the old ones.

Bosses
My Dads boss once had a policy of welding broken hacksaw blades together to reuse!
