Stingiest thing you've seen someone do

Lend a person a pencil but take off the eraser.

Haha that's a scumbag move imo.

In HS my friend never bought a pen, literally. What he would do was go to the library and look for abandoned pens or quickly swipe someone's pen when they weren't looking. One time when I was at his house I saw his whole collection and noticed that a few of my missing pens were in there but he said to me "yea well you're not getting them back", but I managed to steal them back.

I had a relative who would pull the little green things of tomatoes before they were weighed. I have no idea why she even bothered it can't have made any difference at all.
 
At whole foods i put some of the cooked food in a soup cup since soup is a flat rate.

I always say i'm an employee but have forgot my card whenever I go to McDonald's and I rotate it so they don't catch on. Like different McD's each time.

I also go back the next day and say they gave me the wrong food but I didn't realise until I got home, they always give me free food. I even take pics of the food to prove I bought it.

I also sneak my own drink into restaurants so I don't have to pay 3.50 for a cup of coke.

I'm stingy:icon_lol:

Wow, this is the winner right here. That's a ton of effort to save like $5. McD's is cheap as hell.
 
Lol at the losers calling their stealing habits being stingy.
 
My coworker's parents made him pay rent when he was a freshman in high school. I thought that was pretty silly.

I'm an atheist, but this is just awesome.

If I find out a place demands 18% tip automatically, I will never go back. It's enraging.
 
My ex-girlfriend likes to take home airplane/hotel stuff (slippers, toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, soap, etc) its like a fucking collection. When I asked her, why do that and bring all the stuff back with you? She said she paid for the service/room and its part of what she paid for.

Glad we're not together now.

cheapest, most miserly thing i've ever seen was an older dude, the stepdad of a friend of mine. The snack he'd have at his house was a bag of pretzels; they were about a buck a bag as opposed to doritos or some other luxury snack. That's not it though.

When the dude got to the bottom of a bag of pretzels, he couldn't bear to throw out the extra salt that had fallen off the pretzels. He saved it and used it to salt his food.

Someone post that GIF of the 40yo woman snatching a baseball away from an 8 year old girl at a baseball game.

That was it.
 
I had a friend who to this day am convinced he needs psychiatric help for reasons outside of this. I was dating a girl at the time and she brought a friend who he he hit it off with and ended up dating. After they were dating and I know he did this with other girls, he would keep a tiny notebook and wrote down all the drinks she got and by end of night he would tear the paper out and hand it to her to pay her portion. Wasnt uncommon to see arguments over who ordered what and te girl would say something along the lines of "why the fuck am I still standing here talkin to you" and storm off. Needless to say , his relationships didn't last long. And he had no idea why?! More stories but I don't have time to post them

Your buddy does have problems indeed. How does he even socialize in society with that loser mindset?

Ok itd be too lengthy to fully describe his whole personality so you guys will have to read the things and take them for what they are. Keep in mind as I tell u the stories this is a kid I knew since kindergarten. I used to take up for him when people would want to fight him or talk shit about him. I taught him how to count with skittles when we were just kids. Btw he is a spitting image of will Ferrell in terms of looks, so much so that people would come up to him all the time asking for his autograph. Anyway, I used to have a slot machine that people would play when they came over. It was just for fun never cared about the money it made which most would be about $15-$20 in quarters if I had a big house party. He asked if I wanted to sell it and I said sure. Long story short, I guesstimated about $20 in change. He didn't count it there and took it home. I had a voicemail next morning from at 4:15 am and about 3 more after that with this kid yelling to the top of his lungs that I needed to call him back IMMEDIATELY!!! Wanna know why and I wish that I was making this up.... There was only $17.50 in there and I told him $20 even though I told him that amount was a guess. You'd swear I robbed him blind. He couldn't sleep because of it. Ok my son is acting up. I'll finish stories later
