  8. I think being cheap is a poor human quality. Treat yourself, treat others, but don’t be foolish. Spend wisely. But always strive for good quality, good deeds, and good opportunities for giving.

  12. Nothing is cheap today. Not gas, or food, or clothing, not even most enjoyment. Because these things are not cheap, people are cheap. It’s like a vicious cycle, except it’s not a circular cycle.

  14. “He was cheap, that was the only problem,” Mama said as she stirred honey into her tea. “And that got to be too much of a problem after a couple of years, okay?” She looked at me with a kind of “do-you-want-to fight-about-it?” look, and I looked down; I didn’t want to fight.

  15. money. dollars, euros, yen, pounds… what binds us to paper and copper? why are we a people so fixated on wealth and image and success? what happened to passion, to doing something because you can’t go a day without thinking about it? what happened to our drive?

    David
  16. He held out the ring, a cheap little plastic ring, bought in a quarter machine of the bowling alley they were at. But at the moment when he knelt down with an amused twinkle in his eye and a smirk on his lips, she knew that no diamond could ever be worth as much.

    Courtney

  18. cheap, as in won’t pay for something good. So my brother said of the likelihood of our Diego Rivera “painting” being an original. “Dad was just too cheap to have paid for an original.” Maybe so. These days, I just enjoy the beauty of the work itself, and don’t care much whether or not it’s real.

  19. Cheap? Didn’t I already do this word? Cheap is low on money, when your kids have been eatin kraft dinner or Mr. noodle for a week. Cheap is when you find converse shoes on sale and it’s the best day of your life. Cheap is like my uncle. Who has a large moustache. I like him, he smells like comic books and after shave.

  20. I wish school was cheap, well cheaper then it is because then I would be able to do what I actually want to do more often which is travel and experience live. I would have been able to go everywhere but never met the people I did in school so that would suck. These people are awesome and I would be nothing without out them, there is life past highschool.

  21. cheap. his sisters laugh that dad was so cheap, he could make lincoln’s eyes bleed (on a penny). but when he died, he left us a couple million. even though he died too young.

    that guy, however, truly cheap, that guy i thought was my soulmate. the dreamboat who turned tout to be a footnote. surprised to hear he sprang for valet parking at his wedding. though he was cheap enough to insist that a friend host the wedding in her back yard. probably bought her a gift card to applebee’s in thanks, we colleagues (and friends, he thinks) joked over lunch.

  22. I don’t like cheap people. I have known many cheap people but i don’t think that it’s their fault that they have become stingy on material objects. In a way it’s a good thing. Looking at it positively being cheap is good but it’s negative in the sense you really are uptight.

  23. You’re extremely cheap. You only take me to used bookstores. I love used bookstores, but I’ve never told you that. We met in a bookstore; people think this bookstore is used but it’s not. It’s just very shitty. Like how cheap you are. Maybe our relationship is based off of your cheapness. Certainly it’s not based on anything better.

  24. its effective for my pockets. Its appealing but instills a thought of detering quality. Is it worth it?? Should I spend the extra few bucks. Or do I really need is at all? you usually get what you pay for..

  25. the red smears on her face with
    the hastily applied white powder that
    only covered spots of her aged face.
    the first word that came to my mind was
    sad.

  26. Cheap can be a various assortment of things, ranging from incredible to just flat out lousy. Like people can be cheap. Unfortunately it’s usually not a good thing unless attempting to save money. It can also mean something else entirely meaning you’re going to get something on sale which is usually an exponentially more expensive item to purchase.

  27. cheap as in not much or in low quality, something perhaps that is flimsy and now my phone is ringing sorry

  28. “Don’t be such a cheap-ass!” She screamed while nursing a two year old back to life and into some sort of prison system. Her apron taut to her bosom, she appeared everything but introverted. She was the type of woman you would write home about – but lie often in the process. She was my wife.

    Alex Jay Dubberly
  29. People say I’m cheap.
    Because of my religion; my friends, family, and such, people will always see me as the cheap Jew.

    And I’m generous with mine.

  36. I am very cheap. I like to be cheap because it helps me conserve money. I like to conserve money because I am “cheap.” Being cheap also means not taking risk, to an extent. I do however like to take risks. So im not really cheap but I like to conserve.

  38. The sweater pilled at the edges and its murky orange color did nothing to sharpen its appeal. Then again, the t-shirt on the next hanger was dyed a gross pink color and read something unintelligible about Madonna. The attraction to Forever 21 finally died inside me.
