| America's Cheapest Family Gets You Right on the Money: Your Guide to Living Better, Spending Less, and Cashing in on Your Dreams by Three Rivers Press Good for Newbies | | Didn't really glean any advice for myself, but it was a quick interesting read and I think it would be helpful to inspire frugality in those who are just learning the skill. | | America's Cheapest Family Gets You Right on the Money: Your Guide to Living Better, Spending Less, and Cashing in on Your Dreams by Three Rivers Press The only book you need to read is the Tighwad Gazette | I thought this book would bring some new ideas based on the positive reviews. However, after reading it I don't think I learned anything new. The chapter on budgeting was interesting, but I really learned most of my frugal tricks from Amy Dacyczyn's "The Complete Tightwad Gazette." It does not read as easily as "America's Cheapest Family," because it is in newsletter form. But, it has a ton more information than this book has to offer. I do admit that you have to have more patience reading the Tightwad Gazette, because you can't simply flip to the chapter you're most interested in. But it is, hands down, much more informative than America's Cheapest Family.
Don't waste you're money on this book - just buy The Tightwad Gazette (or better yet, get it from the library) - it'll tell you everything you need to know! | | America's Cheapest Family Gets You Right on the Money: Your Guide to Living Better, Spending Less, and Cashing in on Your Dreams by Three Rivers Press Practical and great! | | This book is loaded with experiences and practical ways to be good stewards of our money and time. It's organized in a way that's great as a reference tool. And they have lots of references you can go to for further assistance. They have and promote a great family bond. I appreciate the love and care that went into this book by the husband, wife AND kids. :-) I loved it! | | America's Cheapest Family Gets You Right on the Money: Your Guide to Living Better, Spending Less, and Cashing in on Your Dreams by Three Rivers Press Question | | My family lives within its budget, which isin't always easy considering our priorities. We very much value eating foods that are locally grown, organic, and primarily "food". That is, we do most of our cooking from scratch. Before buying this book I'd be interested in knowing how much of the "cheapness" comes from buying highly processed foods? If buying cheaply means buying at Wal-Mart and essentially supporting the consumer gluttony of our country I'm not interested. If their solutions are more creative and globally concious than just saving money I'd like to see what we can learn from them. | | America's Cheapest Family Gets You Right on the Money: Your Guide to Living Better, Spending Less, and Cashing in on Your Dreams by Three Rivers Press Interesting book | | I have not finished the book yet but I like the easy reading in this book. It is easy to understand with good tips. I am sure I will find many more good tips as I finish it. I am glad I bought this one. | | America's Cheapest Family Gets You Right on the Money: Your Guide to Living Better, Spending Less, and Cashing in on Your Dreams by Three Rivers Press Product Description | Do you have too much month at the end of your money? Is your credit card screaming for relief? Are you tired of robbing Peter to pay Paul . . . whoever they are?
