Transcript of “Taffy Pocket”
We were talking a few weeks ago about expressions around the world for somebody who’s a cheapskate, very miserly.
And we talked about, for example, the Spanish phrase cocodrilo en el bolsillo, which means a crocodile in the pocket.
But we heard from Stephen Hilty, who shared a term that he had heard that I really like for this, and that’s taffy pockets.
Oh, yes, I saw that.
I laughed.
I saw that email and I laughed.
Because you can just imagine somebody like, I can’t get my hand out of my pocket.
It’s stuck in my can’t.
My money is like taffy.
Right.
