Hilary Swank: The Million Dollar Cheapskate

Hilary Swank, star of “Million Dollar Baby,” recently went to a CD store to buy some CDs with her 100 dollar gift certificate. Her total came to $99.58. Instead of leaving with her merchandise in a timely manner, she decided to hold up the line for her remaining $0.42 cents. According to Bang Show Biz,

“She had only spent $99.58 so the cashier rang up her purchases and then gave her a gift certificate for 42 cents. Hilary asked if she could have the change in actual coins instead.The manager had to be called to reopen the cash register, holding up the queue, and Hilary kept complaining about the inconvenience having to wait was causing her.
“But she still hung on for her 42 cents.”

I’m not a big-shot movie star and I can’t even make myself wait for any change what so ever. However I have a good reason. The jingling in my pockets prevents me from sneaking around with my other ninja friends.
