Everyone wants to save money. When you think you are doing everything you can and there is no where left to trim in your budget, a book like this one comes along and points out all the areas where padding remains.
As with most economic theories, there are some ideas and suggestions in this book that I like better than others. It is unlikely that I would grocery shop only once a month, freezing milk to keep it on hand. However, the authors point out that the grocery budget is often the easiest to cut and the easiest to completely over spend at the same time. By planning meals and shopping only twice a month (with in between milk and egg only stops) I am able to spend much less that I was with a once or twice weekly trip. If you are looking for inspiration for your frugal habits, this book can provide a kick start in the right direction.
