Default Re: Are your friends frugal?

I have a several that are very frugal but I have one that absolutely drives me insane!!! She is always belly aching about how poor they are and how they can't afford this or that. The next breath she is talking about spending 80 dollars on a perm and where they went out to eat this day the other day etc. and about the movies they went to that week.Her husband also has a very expensive hobby that *must* be manintained. They have to have the biggest cable package offered etc.New c;othes all the time.They both have good incomes and could do quite nicely.

I admit I have my weakness but this is just CRAZY!It's all about appearances. We rarely go to the movies,we wait for dvd. We live in handme downs,clearance rack and thrift store clothes and look quite nice.I'll quit ranting now!
