:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Here’s how the giveaways during Spring Reading Thing 2009 work:

Every Thursday, I post about a new book that’s up for grabs (some weeks, there will be more than one book!). If it sounds like a book you’d like and you want to be eligible to win it, just leave a comment on the post and I’ll put your name in the virtual hat. I’ll leave the post open for comments until the following Wednesday at noon. I’ll then randomly pick a commenter and announce that person as the winner when I put up the next giveaway.

Also, I apologize to any international readers, but these giveaways are only open to readers in the U.S. or Canada.

This week’s giveaway:

Miserly Moms
by Jonni Mccoy


miserlyThe economy is tough, food prices are soaring, and there is constant pressure to have more even though we have less to work with. Enter Jonni McCoy, whose money-saving strategies allowed her family to go from two incomes to one while living in the San Francisco Bay area, one of the most expensive locations in America. Jonni’s tried-and-true Eleven Miserly Guidelines are completely practical and easy to do, and they could save you thousands of dollars a year! This updated and expanded fourth edition of Miserly Moms reveals how to

  • save money on groceries,
  • see through warehouse clubs’ “deals,”
  • celebrate holidays without breaking your budget, and
  • spot sneaky marketing tricks.


Jonni’s tips, tactics, and recipes are so easy that you’ll wonder why you hadn’t thought of them before. If you’re ready to learn how to live well in a tough economy, start reading.
