not only the popcorn I can get a Pepsi in my purse too. carry condiments home from fast food restaurants. never have to buy ketchup, mustard, salt... so I guess the answer is YES.
oh my god not only do i have personality disorder but now I'm a cheapskate, tightwad, wow something new for me and the counselor to discuss. With the exception of the water cups I take from her lobby water machine of course. :-)

I am one of the biggest cheapskates I know. I take my lunch to work so I won't have to buy fast food which saves me about $1,00 a year. Instead of buying a $3 specialty lattes, I make my own at home to save about $400 per year. The cheapest thing I've ever done is to cut each of the ruined legs out of two pairs of pantyhose to get a complete pair so they would last just a little longer. I'm also cheap on cleaning supplies, I use baking soda or white vinegar to clean almost anything instead of buying more expensive products.

I am such a tightwad that when I was single, I made the girls pay for the hotel room & condoms.

Dumpster diving!!! I worked at a store, and their policy was to trash anything and everything that was broke, no longer for sale, clearance and didn't sell, etc. I knew what was going in there, and it wasn't really trash, so mom and I began a habit of dumpster diving. Crazy.
