A good “friend” of about 8 years ghosted me, because he owed me 30$, I met him months later and asked him about the money, he told me, we don’t see each other anymore, why should I pay you back the money.
On one hand it was sad, because we had some good memories, on the other hand it was 30$ well spend.

I knew someone who used duct tape to cover a giant hole in the back of their car’s window. Months later, I wanted to buy the car and get it fixed,but when we checked there was so much moist coming into the back that there were was mold growing on the seats.

I had a friend who’s parents reused plastic baggies, aluminum foil, and plastic wrap. They legit rinsed them out and let them dry on the dish rack. I thought it was weird when I was in college, but now that I’m older I kinda get it.

At a restaurant asked for water, which is free plus, sugar and lemons. Pretty embarrassing because he had just ordered toast and then he just buttered with the table’s portion and asked for more sugar.

Walking down the streets of my hippie town, I watched one of my friends casually grab a takeout box off a garbage can and start eating out of it. Didn’t break stride. We’d literally just come back from dinner. This was semi-normal in my friend group, though.

Take their dirty laundry on vacation with them. They used the washer and dryer in the rental to save on power and water at home.

I saw a coworker wash and hang dry paper towels for reuse. Hung a line right up in the kitchen about once a week for drying.

My aunt would go to Long John Silvers for a promotion they would do for major league games. If the local team one, a meal would be free the next day if you wore that team’s hat. She would go to every Long John Silvers in the city each day and freeze the food so she could eat it all summer. It was disgusting.

I’m told that one of the previous owners of the car dealership that I work at used to go to gas stations and line his pockets with coffee creamers and sugar packets to stock up the dealership’s coffee center.

My mom learned that there was an additional charge at our small hometown grocery store deli for slicing cheese (literally something like 2 cents) so she just started ordering blocks of cheese…
