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.

I remember one tight bastard at school
who would go round asking people for 10p.

He was collecting 50p for a can of coke or whatever, and by asking for 10p he knew he could accuse people of being tight bastards if thy didn't give him the coin.

Clever twat.

It only worked once on me, as I saw him with his drink shortly after giving him the cash.
