Anne S. (tinyinkling) reviewed on 11/7/2013 + 17 more book reviews

I guess every generation has its thrifty heroes. The stories here are more up to date than those in the Tightwad Gazette but the tips cover the same ground. This book also seems more patched together. What I was really soured by was the patronizing tone -- where the person doing the writing was advising the person doing the thrifting and cooking and parties on how to do it better instead of being able to write "I" and "we" in the tips.
