意味
To be thrifty and careful with spending money, often for savings.
文化的背景
The concept of 'Ghanā'at' (contentment/frugality) is a highly respected Islamic and Persian virtue. Tightening the bag is seen as a sign of a 'modir' (managerial) personality. In the fast-paced life of Tehran, this phrase is often used sarcastically among youth to mock a friend who refuses to pay for a shared taxi or snack. Merchants use this phrase to discuss market trends. If 'people have tightened their bags,' it means the market is in a recession. Among Iranians living abroad, the phrase is often used when discussing the high cost of living in cities like London or Los Angeles compared to back home.
Use with 'ra'
Always remember the object marker 'ra' (or 'ro' in spoken Persian) after 'kise'.
The Slang Trap
Avoid saying just 'Sar-e kise kardan' unless you mean 'to rip someone off'.

Sarcasm
You can use this sarcastically with friends who are being a bit too cheap: 'Vay! Sar-e kise ro seft chasbidi!'
Ta'arof
If someone offers to pay, it's polite to say they shouldn't 'loosen the bag' for you.
