Cheap or cheap may mean inexpensive, in a good way, or shoddy, in a bad way--
Let's buy some of this--it's cheap!
This cheap stuff never works for long.
Cheap may also describe someone who refuses to part with money, even when spending would save money in the long run--
He was too cheap to maintain his car properly, so now he needs a new one.
Cheep or cheep ( rhymes with cheap ) is the sound some birds make--
Every time the bird said cheep, she gave him some more bread crumbs.
She liked to hear the little birds cheep.
Now that you know that, you can say--
"He bought a cheap doormat that said "cheep" when someone stepped on it."
