Wall Street Journal Best Selling Author Mary Hunt has written a book called Live Your Life for 1/2 the Price and it’s available from Family Christian Stores (in-store or online!)
From the website:
You work hard for your money. You know you should save some, but it seems like every month something comes up that sets back your best laid plans. If you’re tired of working hard just to get by, this user-friendly guide shows you that you can slash the cost of nearly everything you need without sacrificing joy and quality of life.
Mary Hunt shows you how to get off the monthly money roller coaster. She offers the specific techniques, resources, and motivation you need to keep more of your money every month.
This book is the equivalent of every tip, article, piece of advice, strategy and secret from the entire frugal blogosphere condensed down in paperback form.
With chapters on things like found money, food shopping, cooking, big-ticket items, buying a car, travel and more, she leaves no stone unturned in the quest for saving money.
In the back there are even quite a few recipes for frugal meals, do-it-yourself sauces, mixes and seasonings and more. I am most excited about this portion of the book. There are quite a few recipes and tips in there even I haven’t seen before!
Like I mentioned above, this book combines all the knowledge that’s already out there. A quick google search on a specific topic is going to bring you pretty much the same information. But in book form it makes it a nice desk reference or on-the-go guide. I know I’m definitely going to pick it up again and give Chapter 12 another run through when it’s time for us to purchase a car.
Family Christian was kind enough to give me a copy of this book to preview AND they are offering one to ONE lucky reader! Maybe you want a go-to guide for saving money. Maybe there is someone on your Christmas shopping list that isn’t quite as savvy of a blog navigator as you are and would benefit from this information on saving money. Either way, you can enter to WIN a copy of Live Your Life for 1/2 the Price!
