  • The Frugal Felon

    The man of few words entered the banking area within the grocery store, approached the teller, and pushed a note demanding cash across the counter. The teller placed some cash on top of the note, and when she reached down to grab some additional cash, "Frugal Felon" told her, "No, that's enough."

    Ooh, ooh, I get to tell my little stories.

    1) My husband was robbed at gunpoint as he walked into the driveway from a neighborhood store, having gone out for beer. When DH gave him the wee bit of money he had --I forget how much but think it was something like $1.75-- the robber said "Oh, you're worse off than I am," and gave him back his money! However the guy did take the beer.

    2)When I was a child someone came in an unlocked window while we were all gone. They took a shower, used up all the shampoo, and left a bouquet of wildflowers in a glass in the bathroom.

        If he ever robs a bank in my town and gets arrested, I'll make a few phone calls and try to hook him up with extra rations of TP and soap.

          When I was a kid someone broke in (unlocked window too, if memory serves) and ate dinner leftovers. Nothing else was missing. Just hungry I guess.
