    I’m a miser so I’ve got a couple:

    Carried a microwave by hand for an hour on transit rather than have it delivered for like $10.

    Rushing to hike up a mountain before sunset rather than taking an $8 gondola ride, I survived but my buddy who was with me had a sore foot for the next week.

      Small suggestions? Start thinking of all your time at your hourly rate. You saved the $10 on a delivery fee but spent the hour of your time ‘delivering’ it yourself.

        Yes, well that is why it’s one of the craziest things I’ve done. Def not worth it in hindsight.
