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.

Someone at work just asked me
if I wanted to buy a raffle ticket for children with leukaemia.

My response 'No thanks, I don't know what I'd do with one if I won, they need quite a lot of looking after don't they?' did NOT go down well...

Some people have no sense of humour at all.

(ps I give via Gift Aid direct debit, so the taxman can pay his share on my donations)

I'm definitely
going to try this next time someone asks me to buy raffle tickets. Someone asked me if I wanted to enter a raffle for alzeimers patients on Saturday, a missed opportunity I feel.

Oh, that'd be awful!
If you forgot where you put your prize they'd not know where they were either!
