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

I'm as tight as a ducks arse me
I love to save money and you will often find me at the "reduced" shelf in a supermarket contemplating whether a half price tube of toothpaste is worth the stress of wondering for the next few months each time I clean my teeth why it was missing the box in the first place.
However, you only ever buy cheap toilet paper once. As Johnny Cash sang, "It burns burns burns, that ring of fire".
once again I have absolutely nothing of value to add to this QOTW, I was going to say how I have never bought a tv or a mobile phone because my friends have more money than sense and give me thier "old" ones, but who gives a shit?

Likewise mon Colonel
I may be able to dredge up an old anecdote, but I'm not sure it'll be worth the effort.
