• Basic Trope: A Scottish character is very thrifty and careful with his/her money.
• Straight: Scottie is careful with his money and never buys anything unless it’s a bargain.
• Exaggerated: Scottie takes only things that are free and NEVER buys anything if he can help it.
• Justified: Scottie used to be very poor and so he's used to a spartan lifestyle.
• Inverted: Scottie is a lavish spender who is always in debt because he buys more than he can afford.
• Subverted: Scottie says “I’ll only buy a wee bit here,” but then is shown to buy several very expensive items.
• Double Subverted: But it turns out these items were on sale and thus not as expensive as they normally would be.
• Parodied: On his deathbed, Scottie refuses treatment because it's too expensive.

• Averted: Either the Scottish characters are no more thrifty than the others or else there are no Scottish character at all.
• Enforced: "We need to make sure people know this character is Scottish, so he has to be thrifty."
• Lampshaded: "Why are you so thrifty, Scottie? Is it because you're Scottish?"
