Hey I've done that as well especially at the last few days before payday beats using newspaper :D

My parents did that when I was young, and yeah, I hated it. On the other hand, my brother couldn't usually pass for his age because he looked so much older.

Ever take an old fast food place cup you bought earlier and fill it up in the fast food place and use that as your "current" drink with your meal?

Me neither.

We were driving across Pennsylvania and stopped for gas off the turnpike. It was very early and while fueling up I noticed a "nice" hotel across the street with a sign advertising "FREE continetal breakfast" So we stopped in and had breakfast before getting back on the road.

50 cent drafts on Tuesday nights. ;)

Day old bread
cook large meals and freeze a lot for later (this is surprisingly inexpensive)
I never throw shoes away, my wife has to when I am away and I freak
relight cigars
don't buy PJ tops, just use old t-shirts
sometimes my wife and I will just buy a large drink, French bread and butter(soy-butter) for dinner
take our own food into the theatre
all I can think of now

Drinking Washington, DC tap water.

That doesn't mean you're cheap...it just means you have good taste. Haha.

The bread is part of the meal. What are they gonna do, serve it to somebody else after you sneeze on it?

There was a great episode of Dr Katz Professional Therapist. I'm not even sure who the comedian was, but he was talking about how he'd go eat with his parents and dad would be all "DON'T EAT THE BREAD...THAT'S HOW THEY GET YOU." The comedian is like "What, you think they sew together the leftover steaks from those who don't finish them because they ate too much bread?"

I remember that. I used to say that to people at dinner, "Don't eat the bread, that's how they GET YOU!" ha ha ha

Yeah, me too. The only one who gets the ref. is my ex. We loved that show!

we pulverize the stale ends of bread loaves then freeze it instead of buying "breadcrumbs".

Let's see........I haven't watched t.v in ten years because I'm too cheap to pay for cable.

I haven't watched tv in 6 years because it's so crap. We only have cable tv (basic package) because it costs less than the discount we get for having internet and tv.
