    No need to take the test, I am a plumber that makes me a BofS in frugality.

          Remember being in M&S food store recently. I was behind a couple with a trolly full of recently reduced items. Mega reductions....things down from £5 to 50p......as I was leaving the store they were checking their till receipt line by line!

          Now that's cheap!

            At 34% tight I have to say that I agree with PP- frugility v meaness.

            I seem to be the only person/family I know who seldom puts any foodstuff in the bin until it's been through the soup proccess before hand ( even via the freezer)

            I love to give generously to my friends/neighbours -( that's a pleasure in life surely????)

            As incomes/lifestyles change, we all need to have a 2nd look at how we spend our dosh - and any money 'wasted' eh?

                What on earth are you prepared to do to get that score?

                Mine's a pint of lager Chris........Chris...........................CHRIS!

                Tightwad.

                I managed 58%, and to be honest some of those I was sat on the fence a little.

                I just redid it being totally honest with myself, and scored 25%, I'm going to have to resign as treasurer of the Cardi appreciation society now.

                        I was surprised not to find the question:
