8%.

I'm shocking with my money, earning a decent wage but just far too over-zelous with it and spend a fair bit on things I don't need. My New Year's resolution is actually to start saving £50 - £100 a week which should be manageable. I'm never, ever skint but i'm not wise at all with my cash.

Some of the questions should be on a 'How strange are you?' poll not 'How tight are you?'

I mean looking for receipts in bins? Seriously?

Yeh, I thought that. "How anally retentive are you" and "How badly do you suffer from OCD" could also be poll titles with some of those questions

On the subject whats the tightest thing youve ever done?
In my job I get gifts from salesmen and suppliers in the lead up to xmas, usually this is bottles of wine/spirits (3 or 4 bottles).

These get put in a bottle bag and handed out as gifts on xmas day to relatives. :greengrin

If you have a season ticket for Easter road, that should immediately put you under 10%.

:agree:

Although squeezing every last drop out of a box of wine is perfectly acceptable :wink:

I answered yes to that question. I've never done exactly what it said but when I bought Fifa 12 Tesco were printing £5 off vouchers after every transaction so I went to the self service tills to pick one up before I bought Fifa.

[Killiehibbie]
