Default Dealing with people who turn up their noses to being frugal

I know the answer to this is to ignore them, but it doesn't always work. When they roll their eyes that certain way to make you feel like you are "cheap" (which is totally different than frugal in my opinion), it really bothers me inside.

I cut dryer sheets in half because they work just as well half strength as an entire sheet and I buy half as many. It doesn't save alot, but it does save some and it doesn't bother me to do it. But the other day I had a neighbor find out that I did it and I got that roll of the eyes look.

Is there a good way to react to this type of snobbiness?
