RE: This is definitely TOO cheap!!

Our local paper has a " cheapest of the cheap" contest each spring. I have never entered and NO I DO NOT DO THE FOLLOWING IDEAS!!! But I had to share...

One man is mean to the neighborhood kids so they will TP his yard. He then goes outside and collects the toilet paper and saves it. (ugh) If he s really " lucky" he catches them and they will drop full rolls and run off.

Someone else (I repeat: NOT ME) suggested: for cold sores or fever blisters that form on the outer part of the lips, take a Q-tip and cleanse your ears, then dab the wax on the sores. Supposedly, ear wax dries up sores instantly. YUCK!

Use CheezWhiz to shave your legs. (Ummm......I cannot figure out the logic in this).

None of these ideas were winners, by the way! So, anyone got anything to add??

cycloneOne I heard was watering down the peanut butter. A poor girl s mother watered down the peanut butter to make it go farther. She would then spoon it onto her sandwich (yes, she watered it that much). The sandwich was soggy and flavorless.

This woman watered down milk, fruit juice, butter, soups, just about anything you could eat or drink would be cut with water.

We are not allowed to have " it" jokes. I posted a joke in the rally forum inquiring about bears and whether I should bring my machine gun (which I don t have), and put a url for a machine gun and it got pulled pronto. Obviously some people did not appreciate the joke[&:] and e-mailed the moderator. A line to me would be more friendly, I am a very considerate person after all. Anyways, Just wanted to say can t " IT" it here anymore [

cycloneLOL, You can t say " IT" but apparently you can still say " Six" (sp)
Personally, I have no objective to either one![

Oh, belly button lint and ear wax make great firestarters. So I ll have to find something else for cold sores.

cycloneWell, I tried to go back to the original topic...

I suppose IT depends on what your definition of IT is...[

cycloneWhen I read the ear wax thing, I was grossed out

As for cheaping out ..... I don t get too cheap obviously

I will have to ask DW and see what she says though[

cycloneGenerally, my in-laws are the cheapest of the cheapest however, their friend is even more than my in-laws...this friend will take home Swiss Chalet bones to make soup stock.

cycloneJust remembered about one of the in-laws neighbours; Wilbur and Edith Harris. Both loved chocolate covered almonds, since Wilbur had no teeth, he would just suck the chocolate off and of course Edith had teeth so would finish off the almond! Nothing left to waste![
