None taken. To answer your question, no, I wouldn't describe myself as "cheap" which to me indicates an unwillingness to part with money in order to have or do nice things. I absolutely like to shop for "treats" for myself and others and think I'm generous when it comes to giftgiving and donating to good causes. On the other hand, I do like to find bargains when I can and pride myself at being a good shopper. Hope that answers your question. And btw, strange as it may seem, Cheapy is not cheap either and I should know! I think of him as a great bargain hunter.
