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.

My grandmaShe got very bad her last years because of the Alzheimer. Before we knew about the illness we started to suspect strange things were happening to her. She got very very tight. So much that she would take the home phone (one of those big ones, with a dialing wheel, however it's called) and put it in her bag every time she went outside to make sure nobody used it.
I miss her a lot. Honestly.
