Synopsis
Having discovered that frugality is good for the bank account and the environment, Amy Dacyczyn started a newsletter for skinflints in 1989. Within a year, 50,000 cheapskates had subscribed to The Tightwad Gazette. Now Amy has collected all her wisdom into a book, and it's as good a deal as you'll find in these inflationary times.

    Frugal doesn't mean being miserly! GREAT BOOKS!

    Best books on Thrift and Creativity to keep you going! Frugal doesn't mean miserly and the end result of being frugal and saving is having enough when you need it for other things. A fan of the author's work for years!

    Recommend for all mothers who want to "earn" more by becoming a stay at home mom and focusing on thrift, fun and family time.

    I Love this book! It's a True Classic. Lots of money saving ideas that are useful for any family.

    Good advice from a thrifty woman.

    I have heard of Amy a few years ago and admired what she did to purchase the farm house they lived in.
