Are you thrifty?

I'm a big sucker for sales. Tonight I bought 3 sticks of deoderant because it was on sale for $2 and its usually $5, I didn't even need any. I do this all the time, especially with food and groceries. My friend and I were talking about it and he said I was "thrifty", which I guess I am.

I like buying good quality stuff, which typically means expensive. Electronics, clothes, restaurants, entertainment, etc. But I always look for deals, sales, and special offers.

At first I thought I was just being cheap, but thrifty really is a much better word. I get it from my mom. Its actually a pretty good habit I think, its amazing how far $100 can stretch when you really want it to. My $100 goes a LOT further then a few of my friends $100, its unfortunate for them because they don't make what I do. But in turn the bastards get jealous of me for buying nice things, they don't realize that they could buy the exact same things if they just spent their money more wisely.

Anyone else have like this?
