My late Mom would dry her hands with a paper towel, then place the paper towel on the dish drainer to dry out for reuse. She lived as a little girl during the depression, so some of those frugal habits stuck. I have no problem with people who do these kinds of things, not being wasteful is a virtue.
I have some of my mother's tendencies. I will save lightly used napkins and paper towels for use as fire starters. Wadded up and saturated with 91% isopropyl alcohol, and used in conjunction with kindling, they work quite well.

My mother had to wash cloth diapers before they had disposable!
And the sealing plastic bags are underrated because air is the enemy of food preservation as well as room temperature. That is why long lasting vacuum sealed products expire soon after opening even when refrigerated.

Look for 8/31/71 Orlando Sports Stadium, you might just change your mind
Have heard it, still don't like them live.
Some of the best live rock and blues rock bands I saw live are Kansas, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Grand Funk Railroad, Moody Blues, Pink Floyd and the Almond Brothers to name a few.
BTW, you don't have to @mention me if you quote me, quoting me notifies me.
I understand thrift. Especially when I was starting my own business and had negative income but I can't understand those that refuse to flush the toilet after each use. I always made sure I went to the bathroom before going over my friend's house as a kid. His father figured it was an event only for every few days.
