TightwadsThere'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.

Me tooWe have quite a long front garden with a high hedge on one side and no exterior light, so it's very dark. We close all the curtains and blinds and leave the lights off at the front of the house.
It's not (just) that I'm tight, but I'm of the generation that objects to Trick or Treating on cultural grounds. Why can't the kids just enjoy a good old conker tournament then move on to penny for the guy? Oh yes, it's because the supermarkets can't make any money out of those. Silly me.
