"I guess I think you get what you pay for so no I dont scrimp .."
I feel the same
though there are some things I go out my way to get top quality like dog food, my dogs eat better quality food than me  they cost more to feed as well lol |

We are fortunate that we do not need to scrimp on anything really, but when at uni I had to choose between quality food with cheap alcohol,or cheap food with quality alcohol. I will leave it to you to decide what I went for!  |

"Tyres...
tyres and brakes should never be somewhere to save money always the best you can afford "
Brakes, tyres, bearings and suspension bushes are vital so I would never scrimp on them, I'm the same with oil too. |

Presents for people. Unless it is an aunt who you only see once a year when you exchange wrapped tins of Roses, I believe in buying people good presents. I can't see the point in just going through the motions. Unless I'm on the loo, then a motion is fine.  |

scrimping is such a harsh phrase, its more about being sensible and not paying for brand names and here are some examples
i can't believe it's not wall paper paste
(free butter from the butter mountain)
empty one cup biscuits (happy shopper own hob knobs)
happy shopper rola cola (drink it in one before it goes flat)
happy shopper brylcreem (lard)
real imitation leather shoes from bacons (always buy a pair 2 sizes to big and put on extra socks, very good on windy days)
liberate vegetables from the oppressive regimes of allotments
wine (what's wrong with meths with a squeeze of lemon juice for the ladies)
face cream (see happy shopper brylcreem above)
these any more money saving tips are available everywhere.

The only stuff I buy is...errr...thinking lol.
Realistically I think there is nothing I buy which is quality. I always buy average really. I have been bought a couple of things that are beand names and I do treasure them.
If money was different I would buy better stuff.
I have just spent a stupid amount of money on a Christmas present for my eldest. Its taken me ages to build up to that though x |

I never scrimp when it comes to my son.
he is my life and deserves the best. even if that means I live on beans on toast for a week. and have no ciggys to smoke.
and tools. but they make me money so I make sure I get the best I can afford. |
