Frugal and Cheap are not the same thing though, my first kilt was hand sewn in Aberdeen for my father in 1950 he gave it to me to wear about 2 or 3 years ago
it is still a wonderful garment although it did shrink while hanging in the back of the closet, or so says my dad. So now the kilt is into it's service of a second life, I'd say that is good value for the money.
I found this as a definition of Frugality:
Frugality (also known as thrift or thriftiness), often confused with cheapness or miserliness, is a traditional value, life style, or belief system, in which individuals practice both restraint in the acquiring of and resourceful use of economic goods and services in order to achieve lasting and more fulfilling goals. In a money-based economy, frugality emphasizes economical use of money in meeting long term personal, familial, and communal desires. Might also mean economical or avoiding waste.
