I was very disappointed in this book. Like the other reviewer, I had expected it to be more helpful in the sense of buying items that I would need, but at a time when they would be at their deepest discount. Instead, I found things about what time of week to approach your boss about a raise and other information that, as the other reviewer said, was rather redundant. The title is deceptive, in my opinion. You'd be better off buying a consumer review book, such as "Cheaper" by Rick Doble and Tom Philbin if that's the kind of thing you were hoping for. Or flip through it at your local book store. Might be a fun gag gift for friends or a white elephant present.
