What does the word “frugal” mean?

Today’s question is a vocabulary question that asks about the word “frugal”.  The word “frugal” is one of many words that could appear on the Word Knowledge section of the ASVAB.  Frugal is a word that does not have a prefix, root word, or suffix.  It is the type of word that either you know it or you do not.  There is no part of the word to analzye.  I wrote a book, The ASVAB Tutor’s Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension Study Guide.  Frugal is one of the over 500 words I presented in my book.  I present 2 sentences for each word that provide context clues to help the reader figure out the meaning of the words.  Do you know what frugal means?  I will present the answer and explanation tomorrow.
