Oh that sounds like my dad, the man has more money than he knows what to do with but he will go out of his way to save a nickle.
Example.....My moms plastic laundry tub that she totes the clothes from the back of the house to the washer handle broke off and split the basket. What does my dad do he goes in the garage fashions a handle out of sheet metal and pop rivets it back together. This is a $3 laundry basket for crying out loud!! Would you believe that after 5 or 6 years they are still using the basket?!?! We sat down and figured that they had bought right before my daughter was born 19 years ago, because mom remembers putting baby shower gifts in it when they were at the store buying it.

BILLY...you need to buy mom a new laundry basket for Christmas
and fill it with goodies and tie up with a ribbon.
