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.

The cheek of it..
Few years back, I had a party in my new house. Invited a load of people along, brillant night was had by all.
Following on from the success of my session, one of my mate's decides to organise a similar shin-dig, and we get an invite in return. A week or so before the party i get a call as a reminder not to forget the up and coming session, but just as the conversation ended i was asked if they could borrow a few things. Namely some outdoor gas heaters, our gas bbq, garden chairs, tables and so on. (Basically it would have been easier to invite all their people over to ours and we let them run riot for the night.) and if that wasn't bad enough they asked if we could bring the stuff over. Suppose i should have chucked in the gas too!
how about no.
