This is a question 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 agree to some extent
it seems like a fair enough margin, to take 20p or so or round it up to the next pound/50p whatever but he wasnt open about it.
if he'd told them he was taking his cut they'd wish they'd thought of it but still hand over their money to him.

thruth is he probably just bought his lunch with the profits and only gained a small amount each day. which seems fair "i'll go to the shop and get all your butties if you all chip in 20p for mine". but thats not how it was sold.
