My mother would laugh herself silly when telling this story of my frugal grandfather. His car had a few ticks in it so he took his car to a garage in town to be repaired. Later, when he went to get his car he was charged $4 for the cost of the repairs. Being frugal, he decided to leave his car in the garage over night to get his money's worth. He walked 5 miles home. The next morning he walked the 5 miles back to the garage to get his car only to find they had charged him $8 for having stored his car over night.
