I may be the only one who found this story so funny.
(Tire store. Toom enters)
Tire guy: Can I help you?
Toom: I'd like to have a tire repaired. (It's been flat for a year, but what can I say, Toom is Cheap)
Tire guy: Certainly sir. We'll take a look at it.
(Later)
TG: Sir, we can't fix this tire.
T: (Dang, he didn't have to say it like that. Toom is Cheap) What do you mean?
TG: Sir, this tire is seven years old. (Toom is Cheap)
T: Well, uh, ok. Can I get by with one? (Toom is Cheap)
TG: Uh, no. One of the tires has steel breaking through and the others are pretty bad. (Toom is Cheap)
T: Well, I don't want to buy 4 today. It's an old car. (Toom is Cheap)
TG: (skeptical) Ok. We'll put two new ones on there. What kind would you like?
T: Well, I'm pretty price-sensitive (Toom is Cheap). What's the cheapest you got? (Toom is Cheap)
TG: (still skeptical) You might could get by with this one. They're $60.
T: You don't have anything used? (Toom is Cheap)
TG: (Toom is Cheap) Nothing I'd feel good about selling you.
T: OK. (I wonder if I can drive that thing on the rims? Toom is Cheap!)

What strikes me funny is the fact that they guy gave in.....if this place is anything like the tire places I go the guys behind the desk are kind of pushy....that fact that you got him to say you could go with one in and of itself is great.
stick it to the man toom!!! You are never to cheap. the money you save on tires can be the money you spend celebrating a Dawg win over Auburn.. in Athens... for the SEC East Title... on the way to atlanta...then National championship in New Orleans!!!
