Being frugal at work

Wow, reading some of these posts...places that provide coffee machines! If we want coffee we have to either bring it from home or bring our own coffee pot and coffee and creamer and...our schools don't provide things like that.

And client lunches? It's a whole different world than what I know. I'm not being critical, please understand, just wowed that things like that exist.

I know some guys who recharge their camcorder's batteries at the office on Thursday and Fridays to be used during the weekends.

Well, not to be a scrooge, but last year at Xmas i suggested we refrain from the gift-giving, and everyone agreed. It's just 4 of us here, but feeling obligated to purchase gifts, well, the $$ adds up and i'd prefer not to have to spend it.
