What is the cheapest thing you do?

My family steals all the soap found in hotel rooms. And when my dad goes on business trips he takes that soap too. ALL the soap. We stockpile them in the closet upstairs. We have dozens of them.

Asian people in general lie for their kids.

i.e. When ordering for a restaurant: "Oh my son?" <<glances at small 12 year old>> "He's only 8." <<smiles knowing kids eat free>>

If a guy named 'Your Rudeness' was to take you out for a nice seafood dinner and then slip you a mickey and have his way with your bottom ....in the car ....in the parking lot, what would you say to him when you next saw him?

freshnesschronic · 07-01-2007, 01:28 PM

Well, thank you, your rudeness.

Hmmm...so many things...
Resuse ziplock bags
Snag sugar substitute packets at restaurants
Always ask for samples at doctor's office
Use VA for Rx refills
Use child labor
Get the 5 for $5 hamburger deal at Sonic...and walla, lunches for a week at work
Grab as many cokes as I can carry after a catered meal at work...there's always some left over
Borrow tools instead of buy
I am sure there is more...

We re use bread bags

I use the VA for all my medical care, as is my right
I Snag hot mustard paks from the Chinese buffet
I all ready own every tool you can think of, and no you cant borrow them
As for as your list of cheapness, you sir are a piker

Woohoo! That's me! My wife has always said that I hold onto a nickel so tight that I make the buffalo burp!

As for the tools, I might have been exaggerating a smidge. I have all of the common basic tools a man needs to be a shade-tree mechanic. But anything special or some power tools I infrequently use I’d rather borrow (seeing how my father-in-law has just about everything). If I need something more than several times a year, I’ll break down and buy it.

At restaurants that serve dinner rolls or tortilla chips, I get an extra basket and save them.

I've been known to stuff extra Red Lobster cheddar biscuits in my purse.

I think that is the most disgusting thing I've ever heard of. You seriously eat a week-old burger from Sonic every Friday? *hurk* It would be cheaper to make a sandwich yourself anyway!

glatt · 07-02-2007, 10:42 AM

I make myself (or more accurately, my wife makes me) two sandwiches for lunch every day.
