refuse to spend $10 on a 3-pack of new underwear, choosing to wear ragged and torn ones instead.

(but will drop $10 for lunch in a heartbeat)

    Is this cheap? I would think this is a smart idea.

    I’m so cheap that I use the free toppings bar at a local burger joint to make a "salad" instead of buying a meal.

    I’m so cheap I use my water, lemons, and the sugar packets found at the center of the table instead of buying actual lemonade when dinning out.

    I'm super cheap with ziplock bags too, I don't reuse them, I just don't use them!

    I have a box that is basically full that I've had for probably 3 years.

    Come to think of it, I'm cheap with bags in general...I resent having to pay 5 cents for a bag that usually ends up with holes in it by the time I get home. I also often take an extra produce bag or 2 (and feel like a thief doing it).

    I'm so cheap that I get extra condiment packets from fast food restaurants so I can save money on ketchup, mustard, sugar, etc.

    I don't really like to buy frivolous items (high end makeup, music, books) unless I can pay for them with giftcards from doing surveys.
