'''Penny Pincher''' is a recurring skill in the {{DQSeries}}. It steals 10% of an enemy's money when it connects, and does not detract from the gold accumulated at the end of battle. In the main series, the skill is performed with a [[Hammer Weapon Family|hammer]], but it is a normal skill in the ''Monsters'' series of games.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ8}}===
[[Yangus]] can use '''Penny Pincher''' after allocating 25 points into his Clubs skill. Once he has allocated 93 points, it is replaced by the more powerful [[Gold Rush]], which deals 25% more damage. It costs 2 MP to use and can be used as many times on the same enemy as desired, although there is a chance that no extra gold will be obtained.

==={{DQ9}}===
This ability is learned with 13 skill points invested into [[List of hammer skills in Dragon Quest IX|Hammer skill]].
