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 had a mate who was a bit tight...
She did the well-rehearsed trick of "oh, I've only got my card and we're miles from a cashpoint" whenever it was time to chip in. This, combined with borrowing food/baccy/weed etc eventually ran up a tab of about £160. I was not happy.
So I left her and her snotty mate at Download festival at 9am, 170 miles from home and with allegedly "no money".
They still afforded train tickets home somehow.
