I'm in for all the deals (buying bone in chicken, gassing up in the states, etc. etc.) but sometimes I come across as cheap.

I actually have a post on this.
Check it out!
That's just my opinion though...

this thread makes me realize that I suck at being frugal... lots of interesting tips, but it's hard for me to take the time to do all that...
After work, too lazy to cook so i'll eat out...
No time to wash the car myself before I head out, so i'll take it through the car wash...
Need to pick up a couple things but safeway is the closest, so i'll grab them there...
Saving money takes so much effort...

Same here. I can say though, I'm spending less now than I was before.
I even have a budget app for my phone to help me not go over monthly budgets but I always cave when I get really hungry and lazy.
