looking at replies to the official ''dilbert'' blog , real kix.. which brings up the question , how cheap are we? Besides the normal trini Pie Race E ( almighty google is watching) what else do you do ?
Me i rarely buy anything in malls , the prices are jacked up as much as 2 times what you pay elsewhere...
Tief neighbour hard drive ( he wasn't using it though) instead of buying a new floppy drive and installing windows on my SATA , before that i ''borrowed'' other people's floppy drives to install windows .
Got that same 200 gig SATA drive in the mail free when i ordered blank 50 DVDs.... i'm not complaining :p
Of course a true trini :
Re uses 'hi-lo' bags for other purposes .
Uses Royal Castle / KFC satchel ketchup at dinner table .
Visits the cemetary on valentines day ( free flowers)
Always has mango chow when the neighbours tree bears .
High tech Trinis :
Use solar energy and a magnifying glass,or your nearest Pressh0t to light their cigarettes .
Open up their case and uses a standin fan for cooling
Has a list of dozens of dial up passwords they attempt to use.....
Uses TSTT's new *131 option to ''take a call'' from a padna .
post your own exploits of cheapness.

My dad's so cheap . . .
HOW CHEAP IS HE?
. . . he asks the waitress for extra lemons in his water, and then uses them to make lemonade.
You think that's funny, I've actually got surveillance footage of my boss stealing lunch meat from the cafeteria at work after hours. This is the same man who would go to the grocery and buy plastic plates that looked like the plastic plates you would "buy" at the cafeteria to be able to get in line for the salad bar. Crazy!
