I suppose you won't pay anyone for the information!

He's so cheap he wouldn't even pay attention.

He's so cheap when everyone threw their tips on the table at the
restaurant, he collected them back, muttering, "Service wasn't that
good." (Not much of a joke, but I've witnessed this one!)

He's so cheap, when he saw a stranger drop a $10 bill, he picked it
up, ran after the guy, and upon catching up said to him, "Could you
give me change for a ten?"

... so I took the $10, and gave him 25 cents.

I knew an Armenian rug dealer who described the Armenians as being able
to buy from a Jew, sell to a Scotsman, and still make a profit.

Pretty much any Jack Benny episode has a couple of good ones. My favorite:

Robber: Your money or your life!
Jack Benny: [pause] I'm thinking about it!
