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.

An old friend of mine
Refused to pay extortionate prices for designer clothes. I completely agree with this, and I can count the number of designer clothing items I own on one hand, and could still count them on one hand if 3 of my fingers got blown off in a spunk-bomb accident.
However my friend, rather than simply buy clothes from Primark and the like, would buy a plain white T shirt and crudely draw a Nike swoosh on it in permanent marker.
Funnily enough the ladies found this adorable, so bear this trick in mind next time you're looking to fork out £50 on an Adidas stringed vest.
