@carrr_uhhh: When do you cross the line from frugal into cheap? Let me know in the comments. I cannot wait to see these answers 😂 #frugal #cheap #moneytok #debtfree #TikTokCreatorSearchInsightsIncentive
I think cheap crosses the line when it comes to giftgiving. I don’t think one needs to go overboard when giving gifts, but I love giving. I don’t want to go broke during Christmas, and at the same time I enjoy buying for others.

Cheap is not buying quality items when you need them. Frugal is buying good quality of what you need at the better price possible.

I think of this example. Frugal “hey are you running any deals or promotions today? No? Okay, thank you!” And going on. Cheap- throws a fit, makes a scene, very demanding, etc. I hope that makes sense what I’m saying.

I have a shop at a flea market. I love frugal people, they appreciate a good deal and the understand the value of a bundle. The cheap ones are those that are flaunting their money but want a $1 item for $0.50.

Cheap takes advantage of others. Frugal is just smart.

Cheap when I buy faux leather shoes when I can afford the real thing (and know real leather will last much longer)

yep :
to me cheap means inconveniencing or taking advantage of others to save a buck. frugal just means not purchasing things that you don't see as worth the money when something else or skipping it is just fine for you.

Frugal is when you are at home and family, cheap is when other people can see and feel your cheapness. When I have visitors I don’t mind splurging on them or paying for dinner. I also turn down the AC for more comfort. It’s not very often they visit so when they do, I make the extra effort

Cheap is a mindset- cheap people get excited by how cheap they are and it becomes almost addictive because they keep looking for more extreme ways to save money to the point they are missing out in LIFE. It’s never treating themselves and living for the next cheap brag. 100% you are not cheap. You live in comfort. Frugal people have splurges on things that are important to them. Cheap people have really no splurges.

Frugal is buying a good product at a good sale price. Cheap is refusing to pay for something or buy something even when you can and should.

Frugal is self respect.. Cheap is fueled by greed.

I was cheap when I was a single parent, I literally worked my ass off to live on a good street in my city. Now I am frugal, and treat myself occasionally

Frugal… cutting open the toothpaste tube before opening a new one. Cheap… using baking soda. Frugal… diluting cleaning supplies. Cheap… using vinegar.

someone in my family reuses zip lock bags, runs the k cup through 2x before discarding, and saves junk mail letters to use the blank side as "scratch paper" I think that's cheap
