The BEST book to read if you're interested in saving money. Amy Dacyczyn gives you tips and tricks that you haven't heard anywhere else. I love the whole series of the Tightwad Gazette. I refer to them often. Such an awesome book!

The original frugal encyclopedia. Not every single one of Amy's ideas will appeal to you, but I bet about a dozen or so will and that makes this book worth every penny. My husband found this book for me at a local thrift store and I've read it at least once a year, every year for about four years now. If you're into TRUE frugality you will love this book!

I loved this book. Still trying some of the ideas to try to save money!!! It is a big book. And has a bit of something for everyone!!! Though we all draw the line some where and I draw it at dumpster diving, lol!!! I wish she would write some more books. Think she used to have a newsletter too?
