My grandmother on my father’s side acted that way and was one of the richest people I knew. For presents she would give a pack of socks or something else ridiculously cheap - she even drove a shoddy beaten-up truck from the 70’s… her wardrobe looked to have been comprised of stuff you would find from a homeless shelter. The only thing ‘fancy’ that she had that made you see her wealth was her house. Everything else was as frugal as could be.
