I'm not talking about cheap as in "my mommy wouldn't buy me $200 Jordans", I'm talking the examples that my mom does:
- We were getting Kool-Aid Jammers out of Walmart and they were $2.50. Then she notices this stupid knockoff store brand that tasted like Caprisun and takes out the Kool-Aid and replaces them. The knockoff was literally 10 cents cheaper at $2.40 which is the only reason why she got them.
- In BJ's, she gets a coupon book. Simple: If there's no coupon for an item, she won't get it no matter how much we actually need it.
- Whenever I pick out something I needs, she's like "what's wrong with this? It's the same thing but a dollar cheaper" I'm like "it doesn't really make a difference. And this product really isn't the same thing.

| don't complain. your mother is trying to do what is financially best for you and your family. i'm sure it's easier to have slightly worse-quality Kool Aid cups than be in debt, don't you agree? |

| Mah mom was being a jerk and wouldn't let me get feminine (I know, I know, it's funny) products because she had some at home which she took a day to find. |

Promised £600 to get a new pc
Decided it's better to get a £100 laptop which struggles to run even flash games near the due date of getting the money |

| But this 10 cents was just an every once in a while thing. She doesn't usually buy kool-aid jammer because me and my brother drink them too quick. |
