Crossword Genius

Penny-pinching drunk (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tight

I believe this is a double definition.

'penny-pinching' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'drunk' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for tight that I've seen before include "Firmly fastened; tense" , "Hard to undo or open" , "Rigid; drunk" , "lack of money" , "Mean; tipsy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
