You are 14% tight...........

"You need to tighten up, you're flushing money down the loo. Thrift is a virtue."

That can't be right........I'm as tight as a ducks ar5e............

[bearded bloke]

Well it seems I am 14% thrifty & very proud of it I am

I bet he has not got many real mates if these are examples of what to expect on a night out with him ...........

When it's your round in the pub, have you ever manoeuvred yourself so you can't be found?

If splitting the bill based on 'who's had what', have you/would you ever deliberately put in less than you should, knowing everyone will have to split the extra?

If you can't "stand your corner" then just have a night in,how the heck can he have a nice time expecting to be subsidized by friends/colleagues

A little test for you to see how frugal you are (Thanks to VVG - who knows me well!)
How tight are you? Take the MoneySavingExpert.com test to find out
For the record I score 48% "You're frugal, you're thrifty, but on this site that's a little bit fab."
I rather like feeling "a little bit fab"
How fab are you

I was 42%, as you know VC and I like being somwhere near the middle - feels OK!

[Snadger]

63% don't know whether to be proud or ashamed!

[Snadger]

Round here, people fill there trolly from the cheapie counter, toddles off to a corner of the shop and sort it out, sending the bairns back with pushchairs full of the stuff they don't want!

I've bought nothing since Friday (basic provisions).
And unless some evil grape flashes a cheap seeds website under my nose I'll buy nothing until this Friday. No shops here...

Stopping for a month? Depends on the month!

I got 38% and to be honest I'd have been ashamed to tick some of the boxes as they weren't all anything about frugalness. Sponging off your mates is not frugal it's just taking advantage. If you go out for a meal and don't want to spend much, tell them and pay for what you eat, same goes with drinks, you pay for what you have. Also don't see why emptying own brand into major brand boxes is frugal, it's just sad, am quite happy to leave them in the original boxes in our house. Don't have left over milk on my cereal either, put on what is needed. Maybe I'm just taking this too seriously

[Tripmeup]

I was 23% tight. A little loose with my cash apparently

ah well, you cant bring it with ya.....

[hamesy]

You are 84% tight

I knew I was tight but

[mrswadders]

Oh no I'm 59% tight - I liked the question 'do you follow the man around the supermarket that reduces things' - I'm ashamed to say that's one of my bad habits

with any luck that could be you soon....

Point Taken...........

[northepaul]

50% but some of the questions werent very applicable, (pub one for example) and , I always give a fair tip in a restaurant, if the service was good, as I know how it make wages up....

[rustylady]

65% for me

[Qzy]

"You're a little loose with your cash, a bit of belt tightening wouldn't hurt."
