My aunty was very thrifty,
It was like my daughter said "taking out blood from a stone"
So whenever she wanted something new or something she liked she told my uncle to bring it for her and not tell her how much it cost,
But he would,adding more than the actual price,
Enjoying the look on her face.
But, the twist is that her thriftiness paid off,
During lockdown the money she hoarded is helping to run the house and pay the bills.
