You are 53% tight
"You're frugal, you're thrifty, but on this site that's a little bit fab."

One of those questions made me lol: "Have you ever, or would you consider using a 2-for-1 restaurant voucher on a first date?" - I've done that more than once! The type of girls I like would prefer it that way. I wouldn't want to date someone that wasn't tight!!

I'll do most things that are not dishonest or disgusting to save a few pennies. For example, I would never dodge a round or split a bill unfairly. I wouldn't steal office stationary for personal use either - I was recently quite horrified that some of the people at work managed to empty about £50 between them from the franking machine to post their Christmas stuff.

I'm usually fairly generous which probably explains where most of my money goes.
