Default Re: How frugal are we really?

My frugality is relative. Compared to some coworkers who spend $10 on lunch every day, I am very frugal. I am sure that in comparison to many of you I am not frugal at all.

I strive to balance frugality with enjoying the fruit of my labor. For instance, I could drink tap water which tastes awful at my house or I could stop at the convenience store and buy a bottled water everyday. Instead, I buy bottled water in bulk each week and take it with me. I am being somewhat frugal without totally compromising what I enjoy.
