Not only do I love a good deal, I love telling DH or my Mom or you guys when I save a whole lot of money. I assumed everyone was like this until yesterday. I stopped by a friends house to return a book I had borrowed (how frugal of me not to have bought it at the store! 
) and she was in the middle of pouring generic laundry detergent she bought at Dollar General into an old bottle of Tide! She had already poured her generic liquid fabric softener into the empty bottle of Snuggle. 
I was like what in the world are you doing? She said she always does it in case she has company over and they look in her laundry room, she doesn't want them to see that she shops at the Dollar Store and uses generic. I wanted to bust out laughing because it was just so ridiculous but she was perfectly and honestly serious.
Not only would I not waste time doing something so crazy, but what kind of company would snoop in your laundry room and then make fun of you because you use cheap detergent? Anyway, I just never thought of people being embarrassed because they are trying to say money. Like I said, I love it when I can save a $1.00 here and a $1.00 there and I love telling people about it. So I was just wondering if anyone else did questionable things to avoid looking too frugal.
