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 get terribly generous when pissed.
Oh ive lost so much money being pissed for doing totally expensive things. I was at a wedding reception not long ago and it finished a bit early and I offered to take a load of people into town and pay for taxis, drinks, club entry the lot for everyone. Thankfully came to my senses on that and fucked off in a taxi home before i lost a couple hundred quid!
But ive bought practical strangers drinks, over tipped taxi drivers, bar staff and allsorts.

Once I was running out of money, and drew some money out of a cash machine knowing damn well it would have blown over my overdraft limit giving me a lovely £40 charge from the bank for the pleasure. But sod it, did it anyway :)

Yup, once I'm out, i'm out and money is no object. I need to stop it though as its leaving me poor.
