The biggest cheap a-hole I ever met was this hard core cult christian guy who owned the small company I worked for right out of college.
People were embarrassed to go out to eat with him because he was such a horrible tipper.
He would have the admin girl call all around town to see who had the cheapest oil change and then get her to try and talk them down to a lower special price for a christian business owner.
The inside sales people were not allowed to keep any of the sizable commissions on any sales they helped make. He would have someone sneak in the files to get the information needed so he could get the rebates/commissions for himself. He did give one a movie gift card once as a thank you, that we all know someone had given him as a gift.
There was a mentally challenged guy who did the grass cutting and odd jobs around the office building we shared with a few other businesses. One day he decided to call the management company to have him let go because he didn't want to pay for his share of that service anymore. The doctors and others in the offices around us were having none of that crap and got the guy hired back.
Of course he drove a nice BMW, but still claimed his religion was why he was do frugal.

20 some odd years ago, I returned a favor to a buddy by helping out his son (Boy Scout) set up and sell their popcorn and such to pay for some jamboree or trip or whatever inside of a grocery store on Sunday.
Old head walked in, the kid said “excuse me sir, would you like to purch...” and the old guy cut him off with his hand up and the air without even looking over saying “I don’t do business on Sundays”. Very crass and the comment was strange considering he was in a grocery store, but hey maybe he was just with someone and not buying groceries himself.
20 or so minutes later and this old top has a cart loaded to the brim with groceries and when he starts to put it on the conveyor and I holler out “they can’t sell you that since it’s Sunday”. He didn’t like that. And of course he was parked up on the curb about 10 feet from the door.
