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.

Keep your eyes open...
... for one of those glass cutters that Ronco or the like were selling a few years ago.
You can pick them up for pennies at charity shops or boot sales.
When you've drunk the liquid, use the cutter to score around the base of the bottle, it should then come away cleanly and you get to eat the pear too without worrying about shards of glass being in it.

What a good idea.
The pear is not small, it is normal-sized and I bet it'll taste great.

I was thinking of buying a very long sharp thin knife to jab in through the top and cut it up so I can eat it.
