Cheapskate is a single only released in the United States and Canada, from Britpop band Supergrass' second album In It For The Money, that rose to #35 on the US Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart, and #11 on the Canadian RPM Alternative 30. While being only a 7" promotional single, it has an accompanying music video, that was, for an unknown reason, left off the Supergrass Is 10 DVD.

The song is said by the band themselves to have drawn influences from Kool & The Gang.[1]
