A friend and I were talking about cheap people yesterday and I found it so funny how cheap people can be. My father-in-law was the cheapest person I'd ever met. This guy had money, probably because he was so cheap, but always wanted to spend someone elses.
When my husband and I got married, he wanted us to go around to fast food restaraunts and steal ketchup packets so we could use them at the wedding dinner. First of all we weren't having hamburgers and hotdogs and second, give me a break! I told him I would be happy to spring for a bottle of ketchup and might even throw in some mustard and mayo if he liked. Once my husband took him and my mother-in-law out for a Valentines Day dinner. This man tortured the elderly waitress till I thought she was going to cry. Our bill was over $150 and my husband left a nice tip. I couldn't believe when we all left the table I saw him slip the tip in his pocket and leave, never saying a word. At that moment I couldn't do or say a thing, but the next day I went back and gave the waitress her tip with a nice note of apology. Needless to say, the man didn't like me very much....god rest his cheap ass soul! What's your experience with the cheap people of this world?
