I do the same thing with MY huge cup that I love love love :) I use it for soup, grapes as a snack, whatever!!!! My parents are frugal in that way too... except we have this beaten down vacuum cleaner that's older than ME, and my dad refuses to let it die ...so it looks like a weird Franken-vacuum with duct tape and strings pulling it this way and that... *rolls eyes*... The worst part is that the suction doesn't even work in it any more. It just makes noise and blows out air, but my dad claims it's saving him money... yet he spends $100 a week or MORE in lottery tickets.. *rolls eyes again* OMG!
