    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;so, i chew trident gum and that stuff is gettin way expensive. the second you get out a pack of gum you have 50 hands reachin out for a piece. naturally, i split the piece in half to double the portion.. i dont know why people get pissed at me. the pack lasts twice as long that way. i mean, why do i have to be the cheap bitch? they're the ones they cant go out and buy their own pack.. anyone else have issues with your money saving ways? i mean, do people make comments about it or whatever?&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;My husband's cousin insists on sending my husband a text message about one a week.  We have both told him to stop sending them because I hate to pay verizon one cent extra (and a text message is approximately ten cents extra) when he can call us for free (I think I'm getting old and not embracing new technology).  The messages usually consist of "Hey - we are watching the football game.  Want to come over?"  But he keeps sending them (possibly because he doesn't want to hear us make up some lame excuse on why we don't want to drive across town to hang out with him as he laments about why he keeps dating psycho women).  Should I just let it rest?  It's only $.10 a message.  But I hate the way that verizon comes up with extra ways for me to give them money.  Can I block text messages?  &lt;/div&gt;

Do any of you go to a buffet, and fill up purses, pockets, and whatever else 'for later' ?       My Mom usually grabs a dinner roll or something like that and wraps it up to bring to my house for my dog.   I have seen people grab chicken wings and fill coat pockets with them before leaving.   Also, if someone pays for a buffet and takes 'extras for later', is that stealing?&lt;/div&gt;

They want two hundred and fifity dollars for a copy of the film!  What the hell? I guess I'll have to do a video store search for it.  Has anyone seen it? I hear its really good.&lt;/div&gt;

I believe in fair trade, but being a cheap bastard I thought : Why don't I use this other brand's bag for my coffee and only get charged 7.99 a pound? I then realized this sabotaged the whole idea of fair trade , what's a cheap-ass to do?&lt;/div&gt;

I guess that would be the sanitary thing to do, right? Not like rubbing your crotch with pool chalk.... but hey this is the cheap bastard tribe perhaps its not worth my money to wash the pants after all....&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;I wanna know about yummy and inexpensive happy hour places. One of my faves in downtown is the chop steak house on third, I thinkey. Regular priced drinks with an under five, mostly two and three dollar menu after 10pm. Gustavs is good for the fondue. Affordable on the after ten menu for three bucks. Something discounted on the beer.

You should have seen the selection in the 70s - it was the countertop of choice then, contact papers' heyday. It still can be found in older housing used to make opaque bathroom windows. Tacky? that's the point, it sticks.&lt;/div&gt;
