Scrooge. You can find out about him in Chas.Dickens book, Christmas [something]. Otherwise the next most penny-pinching person I know of is my wife. No you cannot have an ice cream, not even a very small one. We've got lots of savings.

Hey Thia,
Well you got a lot of answers, so, I am not even going to look at what they wrote.
My Great Grandfather lived in Nova Scotia. He had a pot to boil lobsters in he had all his life. The last half of his life the pot began to get holes. He plugged the holes with 2 metal washers a nut and a bolt. By the time he passed away, the pot was so full of nuts and bolts - well you get the picture. He was Scottish, so therefore thrifty by all standards.

My friend picks the grapes off of the vines in the grocery store so he doesn't have to pay for the weight of the stems, He also reuses his baggies instead of throwing them away when he is done with his sandwich.

My aunt who lived through the great depression was very frugal. She reused and recycled everything and purchased a lot of her stuff at yard sales. She died recently and left a multi-million dollar estate.

An ex-fiance of mine of many many years ago would not have a poo at home, but waited until he got to work so that he could use their toilet paper.
This is an absolute truth!
