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.

The Condiment King
I have a friend (Lets call him Ian, cos thats his name) who is well known in our circle of friends for being a bit of a tight arse.
Anyway, Myself, another friend, Dan, and Ian went to a Wetherspoons after college for drinks and some food. Well Dan and I did but Ian had no intentions of spending money.
I offered to get him a beer, he declined. When ordering food, Dan offered to get him some chips, again he declined.
So when our food arrives, I get up to grab a few sachets of ketchup. Ian follows and takes 2 sachets of each condiment (Ketchup, mayo, horseradish, brown sauce, tartare, AND vinegar) and one by one just sucks the contents into his mouth.
"Are you sure you dont want some chips, mate" we as with complete incredulity. "No, no. I'm fine with this".
He also repeated this in Burger King, but this time with 40 cartons of UHT milk.
Tight Fisted Cock Muncher.
