There are thrifty housewives, and there are stingy ones whose frugality reaches the point of absurdity.
We'll tell you what household habits reveal a stingy housewife.
Firstly, hyper-thrifty housewives wash kitchen towels until they are full of holes.
Secondly, greedy housewives buy bed linen made from cheap synthetic materials.
Although there are normal options at reasonable prices – chintz, poplin, calico.
Thirdly, stingy housewives use dishes with cracks and chips, as well as cutting boards that should have been thrown in the trash a long time ago.
Fourthly, greedy housewives do not throw away anything, which is why their home looks cluttered.
Another sign of a stingy housewife is brewing tea bags in a teapot. Never do this in front of guests.
