I shall never swap this book!!! No really this book is the reference book to end all reference books on raising a family on a budget. It has all the information compiled into a resource no tightwad should ever be without. I love her witty humor. There are some ideas I wouldn't do to save money but we all have our level. This book gives you a great place to start thinking about every area you can employ to save money. GET IT.

The third book in Amy Dacyczyn's excellent series: they don't come much better than this! Are you new to the Tightwad lifestyle? Let her show you why being called "tightwad" is a compliment, not an insult! Are you an old hand at stretching a dollar? Let Amy give you new ideas on how to make it stretch even further!

Definately worth it!
