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.

Snap!We should put my housemate and yours together as a battle of the tightwads!
She does the same thing-never leaves the house then wants to split bills in half to the penny
(AND has the cheek to complain that it costs her a fortune), steals my food from the fridge, doesn't buy communal things like washing up liquid and toilet paper (when she does she keeps it in her room) When my boyfriend moved in she upped our rent insisting that "couples always pay more" I agree but we actually have the smaller room and now we split the bills three ways rather than by actual usage.
Grrr. Sorry this story has touched a nerve I didn't know I had.
