Frugal Books

Today I ordered the remaining Tightwad Gazette Book that I had been wanting. I have had Tightwad Gazette I and III for years and had checked out the Tightwad Gazette II from the library. I have been seeing it on Amazon for a while. I kept putting it off, but went ahead and ordered it today. So now I will have them all 3!

I also ordered "More With Less Cookbook". I saw that it was a frugal favorite with many bloggers and wanted to try it for myself!

I have the "Not Just Beans Cookbook", "Miserly Moms" and a Rodale book called "Cut Your Bills In Half" , but was wondering what other favorite frugal books do today's homemakers need in their reference library?

I enjoy reading all the frugal hints on blogs!

I will have to say that the Tightwad Gazettes changed my life. When I first bought them all those years ago, I desperately needed the information they contained and still read them regularly today!

I love the tightwad books too. I'm planning to buy the complete volume for my son and son in law for Christmas this year.

I'm a fan of the Tightwad Gazettes, too! In fact, I'm giving away a copy on my blog right now!

The Complete Tightwad Gazette also includes some stuff not in the first three books--about 100 pages from their "last issues."

I don't think it would be worth it for you to buy it, since you have the first three, but it might be worth flipping through at the library.

I also vote for the Tightwad Gazette books. Those would be my #1 as a must have in a frugal library.

Sounds like you had a wonderful day yesterday!
