Near

(of a person) stingy; miserly

Here's a sentence using "near" in the archaic sense of stingy:

Uncle Harold wouldn't even spring for a round of drinks, so cheap he bordered on near.
Note: This usage of "near" is not very common today. You might consider a more common synonym like "stingy," "cheap," or "miserly" depending on the desired emphasis.
