This book didn't tell me anything new or anything I haven't considered. It's probably a very good book for people who are starting to be more frugal, but the same recommendations are available on Frugal Living websites, Tightwad Gazette, etc. It is good book with some good examples of how they handled things. However, it's not breaking any new ground for me.

If it weren't for The Complete Tightwad Gazette (Amy Dacyczyn) then this book would be great. But, unfortunately it just doesn't stand up to that competition.

It had a lot of ways to be cheap, but no real information I didn't already know.

Good book but so far no new information. All the books Tightwad Gazette, etc all have same information. I keep hunting for the one to say something new...If you haven't read any others though I recommend this as a good one.

The information may not be anything new, but sometimes it's nice to see this info through another set of eyes. I enjoyed reading about how this family saves money and stays out of debt. Very inspiring!
