Cheap things you do vol. every dollar counts

[joepac12]

Some of this is too much work. I'm not buying something to return it later to get for a buck cheaper.

But I do take hot sauce from chipotle
Get water every time I eat out.
Drive for a day with gas light on sometimes.
Spray ozium in my house instead of febreeze
never get double chicken at sarku
Take household items from work

^ reminds me, too cheap for data so I rely on wifi hot spots. I also have a 1000 text limit

Yea someone the other day called me cheap for asking a bar-tender for a WiFi password. I am like why use my data if I don't have to?

I work at the mall and there's also a Jimmy Johns at the mall, as well. Every once in a while, I'll call and have it delivered for lunch. Would you guys tip the delivery guy since he's basically running across the mall?

$1 will be the most..

Underpay my workers and let my customers compensate the rest of their wages through tips.

Win win situation for me because I don't appear unethical to americans for not paying MY workers.. my CUSTOMERS who don't tip do!!!

More money for... less money for my workers, and even less money for my customers.

when I order drinks at the drive thru I ask for no ice so I get more drink, but once I get my order I ask for a cup of ice.

I ain't tipping so for walking a cross the mall. Pat on the back and a high 5 and Lil dude better be on his way.

i never eat out.. save all my money, travel to another country where you dont have to tip at restaurants

Have you ever actually been to these said restaurants? The reason there is no tip is because it's so expensive

I have a price/Oz. ticker in my head at all times.

I saw salsa the other day. The bigger 32 oz container was on sale for $6. Solid deal you would think. But the smaller 14 oz. jars were $2.75. So no matter if you buy up to 32 oz. or not, you're better off buying two of them, or even just one. More quantity isn't always better.

it's the small stuff like that that I think about most of the time.

I know of at least Walmart and Sam's club that will list the UNIT/OZ. price on their price-description label.

1.25 L coca cola bottles on sale for $1 seem like a good deal. But the basic 2 L for $1.50 is the sure per/oz. favorite.

The potato chip and cookie aisle is where alot of trickery happens too.

No one seems to re use their cups at gas station fountain machines anymore... $1.50 is the standard price for a 32 oz. soda that they sell you including ice and cup.. A refill will run you about $1.25 for upwards of 44 ounces.

It's probably why we're fat as a nation because of this 'value' aspect. But what are you gonna do

Price/oz..

 

[Mr Dink]

My girl's mom saves popcorn buckets and soda cups and sneaks it into the theater then asks fof a refill.

i'm surprised nobody said this yet but I pre-game extra hard so i don't spend as much at whichever spot/s i end up at that night.

this is a given b. I'm already sleep at the first bar I hit up.

But wait the 32oz was a better deal… did you mean you just didn't want that much salsa?

Save a parking ticket I get and slap it on the windshield so I won't get another ticket. I get to keep my quarters too.

This is true about getting soft drinks with no ice but I haven't thought about asking for a cup of ice

when I eat at El Pollo Loco they give you the small *** containers for salsa (you spend so much time trying not to spill)

So I ask for a FREE water cup at the counter and fill it up with salsa. I had one female employee say "You can't do that!" and I said "why?" She had no answer just laugh and said "that's smart!"

The one cup of water is like 4-5 small salsa containers

back in the day one of my homies order a burger from carl's jr and asked for no pickles. While he was eating he realized they put pickles in there. He ate around the pickle almost 3/4 of the sandwich. Takes it to the counter and says I ordered no pickle. they gave him a whole new burger

 

[kingkoopa]

I like to have tissue paper and paper towels in both our vehicles in case of a spill, so I normally take a stack of both (off the roll and not the entire thing) from my office building and keep a hefty amount in the glove boxes.

But reading this thread is sad, entertaining and smart all at the same time, haha.

Eating in the whip is for fat people.

You fat papi?

 

[bravelude]

its more about cutting ur spending habit. period.

 

[waitwut]
