Frugal vs Cheap.
There are some things I refuse to give up. I do not buy very many generic things. I like choices so I am frugal with what brand names I do buy. If I want a Rib-eye steak I wait to find one that is marked down for clearance and have it that night.
I have learned over the years to not deny myself things I like. It only makes me resentful and I will not live like that.
