Default cheap habits

does anyone have ridiculously cheap tendencies even though you can afford not to? i'm guilty of saving ketchup packets, ordering water with dinner, and using $10 kragen floormats on top of my factory ones :hsugh:

GO!

I hate to spend money even though I have it. My problem is that I got into some financial trouble a while ago so I went from being a wastrel to being thrifty. I know that in reality I can spend kind of in the middle, but I spend like a broke ass college student.

I also don't use a CC so I can't float things like I used to (i.e. budget myself and pay the card off at the end of the month)

I have really cheap plastic cups for drinks around the house. I mean, dollar store type cups. I'm not sure why, I actually like drinking from them more than the nice glass ones I've got.
