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.

You lot are all soft.
I'm a reasonable bloke, I'll give money to charities loads of times but I prefer cases where I know the person/s directly. I hate cold-calling or street muggers who are (I'd say 80% of the time) only doing it for commission.

So just say "no". If they catch your eye twenty paces away, shake your head, look pissed of and ignore them. Not giving to a charity that is trying to pressurize or guilt trip you is not the same as stamping on a kitten's head.

That's because
nothing comes close to that feeling of satisfaction when you hear the skull fracture and that final high pitched whine as it's eyes pop out the front and it's jaw pops out the back.
