My friends and family alway accuse me of being cheap.

I know it may seem that way to them, but the truth is I am not really cheap, I am just very, very thrifty, because I have to stretch my dollars.

But just to prove that I am NOT cheap:

I only buy Bounty paper towels and BOUNTY napkins.
(no Marcal or Scott)

I only buy reynolds wrap, and lately switched to HEAVY DUTY.

I dont buy off-brand diapers. (okay, I tried them, but I really found them inferior in that they seem to be missing something that the brand name diapers have that sort of absorbs or camoflouges the nasty smell. In other words, the kid stunk)

When I buy plastic forks and spoons, I buy the really heavy duty ones. Okay- sometimes I wash them and reuse them if they are just slightly used.
(yuck to plastic forks that bend when you try poking it into food)

So you see, I am not cheap at all.
