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.

That should be...
... 'between my friends and me:'

I don't normally bring people up on pronoun abuse, but you sound like an arse.

One thing that's guaranteed to make me ignore an argument, however sound, is the addition of the instruction 'think about it' at the end. It's pointless, arrogant and assumes smug superiority in the assumption that no-one else could possibly have let these thoughts enter their heads before.

In reality, everyone has already thought of this. We just didn't want to turn into sanctimonious dullards.

EDIT: I do, however, like your username.
