A "scrooge" is a nickname for somebody who is a "party pooper" during Christmas time, or basically, somebody who looks at Christmas as a time for frivolous money spending and snooty kids, and doesn't enjoy any aspect of it.

Scrooge was the name of the main character in Charles Dickens' classic, A Christmas Carol.

An example of "scrooge" being used in a sentence:

"Don't be such a scrooge. Christmas is about giving, not receiving."
