Being frugal and being tight are not the same ime often refered to as tight or scrooge but at the end of the day being tight is just being sensible being frugal is being resourceful with your cash and resources and takes allot more effort and thought than being tight
frugalism is in my eyes getting what you need and want out of a budget which wouldnt otherwise allow you to "Normally" be able to afford
so instead of just looking at shops and special offers and trying to just be tight it reverts back to thinking of what you could use to achieve the same direction or a massive bit of research to find things at the price to pay all of which pays off and what i do every time i need to actually buy something it may take me a week to find the price i want to pay but at least i get the item or service for what i want to pay not a slapped on price label telling me what i should pay or some nerdy shop assistant !!!!
so in essence i will always look around then i work out how much i will pay then i search for someone willing to let me pay that price and no more -even if it means me buying in bulk - once you set your price dont budge
and if this dosent work you need to revert to making your self or changing plan to allow you to achieve your goal in a different way but never give up and saying cant is just an excuse to give up
