The writers at Wisebread have come out with a book titled 10,001 Ways to Live Large on a Small Budget. As you might guess from the title this book is chock full of useful tips on getting more for your dollar. These ideas will help you have a nice lifestyle while being frugal. Frugality is about making smarter choices with your money not sacrifice.
The book reads like a series of blog posts. Which isn’t too surprising since the tips are mainly from posts at Wisebread. If you like reading blogs posts – and since you’re here reading a blog, you probably do – you should enjoy reading this book. The tips have been organized into several categories such as travel, food, health and beauty, etc. to help you find tips.
With over 10,000 tips the book doesn’t go into much detail on any of them. Most of the ideas are pretty simple though and don’t require a lot of explanation in order for you to be able to utilize the ideas. This book would be an excellent resource for anyone who is just getting started with being frugal. Even if you have been frugal for a long time such as I have you will likely find a few helpful tips in this book.

Love to read this! Thanks for the opportunity 🙂
This book comes out in a time where families need it most. For the past few years, instead of taking advantage and saving, people have been spending and have now found themselves in trouble. This book would be a great help for those in trouble financially or even for someone like myself who gets a thrill out of saving. I’m sure it would be a valuble commodity to anyone who owns it.
I think the majority of America could learn from this book. It sounds great!
Frugal zeitgeist sent me over.
