Book Reviews of The Complete Tightwad Gazette

Book Review: The ultimate "How To" to a simpler life.
Summary: 5 Stars

After reading this book the fourth time, we are amazed at how easy it is to get caught up in keeping up with the Jones', Amy writes in way as to touch our sensibility turning embrassment of being frugal (or just plain cheap) to an understanding that if everybody wasn't so darn wasteful maybe, just maybe we all could take better care of our children and our world. Is she a prophet ? I don't know, but she made me very proud that we don't have any "new" furniture in our home, but we have learned to and have reupholstered every piece of furniture that we own....we dont't have any credit card debt, and we proudly drive an eleven year old minivan...In these times of detached families, Amy is that grandma that lived through the depression and hates to see waste, why be oppulent when it ultimately cost time from what you ultimately love and will remember for always. This book will teach you the incredible lesson of being a intuitive yankee. Thanks Amy.
