TightwadsThere'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.

In the agency work I used to do,food was handled by the staff every day.
In some places, the staff would sit down to two regular meals as part of their working day, and not be charged for any of it. Spare food was given freely to staff. I once took home about 20 surplus cooked best-quality burgers and sausages for my dogs.
In others, staff were not allowed to eat the food they served and people were disciplined for 'stealing' a sandwich or bowl of jelly.
Guess which establishments had the better labour relations? Yup, the ones with the fat workers.
