I recently returned from a trip to London. This was a freebee as my husband's company was sending him, my trip was paid for in frequent flier miles, and all we had to pay was the extra two days for the hotel. The hotel offered a daily breakfast for a posted $12.50. We decided this was too pricey and walked daily to a local grocery store to buy fruit and bagels. It wasn't until we checked out that we discovered the $12.50 was included in the hotel fee. Ironic? or just plain cheap. Review the guidelines below to see if you qualify.

- You spent your honeymoon in Bottle Hollow
- Your children think a coupon is required to make a purchase
- You share a hamburger at McDonald's because they're too expensive
- An order of buddy-burgers constitutes a meal for three
- Church's Fried Chicken is the special college graduation dining spot
- Water (with lemon ) is the standard drink order
- Your children have never had their own fries
- A sale is not a sale unless it is 75% off
