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.

forced to become a flappy transvestiteWe had a similar policy at our school, and my mum had the same idea.
For the first few years I was forced to wear not only a second hand blazar from a different school, with flaps over the pockets which the official ones didn't have (hence my nickname becoming "jonny flaps"), but also I had to wear my elder sister's blouses (the difference being the buttons do up on the other side and there's more space round the chesticles area), thank christ they never noticed that one though, I dread to think what I'd have been called.
I'm over it now though, and only wear my wife's pants at the weekend....
