    Most people seem to be complaining about someone else who has money who is not spending it on them. Still, some horrifying stories there.

    This is crazy!!! Some stuff is really bad, but other things are just plain smart!!! I like the lady who made carpet out of small squares..how great would that be for a kids room or toy room??? Some other stuff is just horrible....taking money off a table (the waitress tip), because you think too much was left by the others in your group...then instead of giving back to the tippers you just put it in your pocket...horrible!!!

    Really good read though, learned a few things too!!!

    Thanks!!!

    The one that had me go EWWWW was the guy who had to restrict salt and had his wife suck the salt off the peanuts then he ate them. I guess If I had salted nuts by accident I would let someone else eat them!

    I loved the coinstar one - put only pennies and nickles through. I personally roll ALL of my coins, but that's a good tip for someone...
