feudalism

A common social and political hierarchy seen in medieval Europe, Japan, and in various middle schools across the country. A king gives land to his vassals or knights and nobles who in turn give their land to peasants or serfs. In the end, everyone is under the control of several people and must pay them money and homage.
My middle school has a feudalistic hierarchy:

Bob: Dude Joe, give me five bucks, or I'll shun you!
Joe: *quickly gives Bob five bucks*
Fred: Bob break up with your girlfriend and give me five bucks. Joe, you can give me five bucks too, or I will shun both of you!
Bob: *breaks up with girlfriend and give Fred five bucks*
Joe: *Gives Fred five bucks*

frugalista

The latest and possibly most irritating in a series of Great Recession-era portmanteau. Also, a great reason never to buy clothes at Target.
Janice, Michele, and Kate are all frugalistas that have one thing in common: they wear bright orange pleather skorts and hi-five the mailman. They are also all dead inside.

super-careful, frugalistic, extra-tally-conscious

What Mary Poppins has to be whenever money is tight.
The movie got it all wrong --- the Banks family had not been having trouble with mean/colorless nannies; the nannies had all just been over-indulgent of the children, and so Mr. Banks hired Mary Poppins to teach his little ones about self-denial, willpower, and wise money-management --- Mary taught them to be "super-careful, frugalistic, extra-tally-conscious" when necessary.
