[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's almost a game for me. I love getting something for less, or figuring out how to fix something that's broken rather than paying to repair or replace it.[/quote] I am like this as well. I did not grow up poor. But I had no idea how wealthy my family was because despite having money, my parents were frugal. My parents spent money but they were never wasteful. I remember my grandmother using butter wrappers to grease pans for baking and rinsing off tin foil for reuse. They were millionaires several times over. She simply could not stand to waste anything. She was an environmentalist before it was "cool". To me being frugal feels like a responsibility. Wastefulness and excess just feels wrong to me.[/quote]
