On the rare occasion she hosts its potluck and everyone either brings their own extras or its whatever was cheapest or not at all...

We're not having them at a fourth of July party this year, we're done supplying everything for their good time.

Worse part they live off family members while they make more with one of their incomes than we do total household incomes combined.

I appriciate a frugal person but not a cheap one.
lol....I hear you on that one......I've had some of those types too....I call those types users and/or parasites......These types will leave the gathering with more than they came with either it being in their arms or in their gut.....or both...
