Whether you are asked to donate to charity , or whether your cousin needs a little help with his finances, we often get hung up on whether or not we have enough cash to help out.

Plus, the styles that fit are usually made by the high end manufacturers and carried in exclusive (expensive) clothing stores. I wonder if I’m really being frugal or if I am just being cheap.
