Talk:don't be penny wise and pound foolish

I'm sorry, but isn't the explanation more like: don't be picky in the short term just to save pennies, because it will cost you in the long term (less profit or higher costs) 62.194.210.199 00:43, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

I'm not even sure we need this entry. Surely it is just a combination of don't be + penny wise and pound foolish. ---&gt; Tooironic 05:40, 11 April 2010 (UTC) I agree they should be merged or one of the pages should be deleted. 66.249.84.132 16:03, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

Redundant to "penny wise and pound foolish". A similar entry might be "don't let too many cooks spoil the broth". Equinox ◑ 13:34, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
