Medisky's book is not only witty but also quite helpful. She offers great ideas on repurposing old items to inform readers how to save money while lessening their impact on the environment. I can't wait to try them out! I'll also be consulting her list of resources next time I do some online shopping.

The tried and true tips in this comprehensive book make it a must buy for anyone living on a budget.

I was thrilled to receive this book from Thomas Nelson for review.  That is how cheap I am.  I get excited over free books.

So I thought I am frugal and keep a tight budget, but I learned so much from this book.  No matter how good you are with your money, you can always do better.  In addition to that, teaching your children how to be wise with money is an even bigger task.  I appreciate all the ideas, encouragement, strategies, and stories presented in this book.

The system the book presented is incredible.  However, the system is too detailed for my family.  If I had read this book 10 years ago, I might have implemented the Money Smart system.  Even still, there were many strategies that I will implement.  I recommend this book to anyone who wants to be better about how their family manages their money.

Thomas Nelson provided me a free copy of this book in exchange for my review which I freely give.

There are a bunch of hot topics out there today in personal finance and self-help.  You could pick any topic from being financially literate, having an abundant lifestyle, "The Secret" or the Law of Attraction and they would all fit within this book.  The book's motto is to "work half as hard, get twice as much done & make three times the money."  If any of these fit your needs, this is a MUST read.  I've gone through the book a few times.  The more times you read it, the more 'nuggets' of information you will get.  This will ultimately open you up to a more abundant lifestyle - both financially and the other aspects of your life.  STOP being a sacred cow or even worse a scared cow! Order this book!

This book helped me to put my spending in a different perspective - it is excellent reading and I will be using it as a reference whenever the "urge to spend" comes up again.

I don't think there is anyone who can't benefit from making their money work harder for them. We'd be surprised to learn the areas in our expenses where we are needlessly throwing money away. I've been on the lookout for a practical tool for stretching my dollars, and I found it in Miserly Moms: Living Well on Less in a Tough Ecomony by Jonni McCoy.

I was one of those people who thought they needed more money to make ends meet. But McCoy showed me, through strategies she used in her own household, to budget the money we have now to cover more of our expenses.

McCoy shares ways she cut her household budget that turned out to be more profitable than getting a part-time job! The author notes, "I was inspired by the challenge of reducing our budget instead of increasing our salary" (p. 14).

McCoy first offers eleven miserly guidelines and tips that will immediately help you save money like, "Don't buy everything from one store," and my personal favorite, "Make your own whenever possible". A lot of time is spent on money-saving tips for groceries, because the author maintains this is where money can be saved the most. Then there are chapters dedicated to other places to save money like on baby care, the eye-opening real cost of working, medical expenses, utilities, etc., all organized from the most cost-saving to the least.

Every time I opened the book, I found a useful strategy to use in my own household. I did not read the book from front to back rather chose topics for which I immediately needed advice. Chapter 31: "An Easy $10,000: Various Ways to Pocket Some Money" is worth the price of the book alone.

If you've wondered how to make more money without increasing your salary, and to make cut backs without cutting out all luxuries, invest in yourself by reading Miserly Moms. Even if you're not a mom, singles and empty nesters can benefit from the cost-saving tips found in this book.

Budgets are a lot like diets - most people don't stick to them! But why?? I think the author Sarah Li Cain does a great job of addressing that question and giving the reader real solutions that do work. She does this by mixing practical, action-oriented exercises with the less simple but equally important topics like identifying your values, communicating with your partner, and understanding your own mental biases.

I also really like the guiding questions the author gives you in chapter 17. Instead of hard, rigid rules, these questions connect your day-to-day experiences of money and budgets with your big picture values and priorities. Very useful! The book was about money on the surface, but by doing the exercises they really make you a better person as well!

This is an invaluable book of practical, helpful suggestions on saving money on pet care.  We want the best for our pets, but the rising costs of unexpected vet bills, food, medicine, toys, grooming costs, etc. really add up when you're on a budget. From making your own pet toys and dog treats to how to get major discounts on food from feed stores or coupons from pet food companies, the tips you'll find here can save you considerable money.
I found information here that I had never heard before, like feeding yogurt to your dog or spraying Avon's Skin-so-Soft on his skin to make his coat shiny and healthy and how to prevent ants from getting in your dog's food.  The advice for cats was also good to know. I found out why clumping litter isn't good for my cat and how to easily grow my own "cat grass."
Even though the title offers 101 ways to save on pet care, with the online websites the author has researched, she has provided many more resources than that. Highly recommend this easy-to-read and insightful resource!

There is one particular line that I remember especially, First identify what I am afraid of, then ask myself what I want instead, then ask myself how to get it. Invest in your freedom. Buy this book!

Unfortunately for me, I do not have to ask myself the "What now?" question about my wealth because I haven't amassed it yet.  Many of you have created great wealth for yourselves and Michael Lipper and Douglas Sease have written a book specifically for you, to help you preserve the wealth that you have worked so hard to create and how to make it even bigger!  Do you even know how much wealth you have? This book will help you to measure your wealth, learn about investing and what works for you, learn how to spend your wealth and when not to spend it. Mike Lipper is an analyst who has helped develop the Lipper Indices for mutual funds, so you are hearing this from an expert that can really help you. If you have been successful and have accumulated wealth that you just don't know how to handle, take the advice of a credible, and proven expert to make your money work for you and not against you. Many people are scared of investing, advisors and money, this book will help you shelve your fears.
If you are like me and don't have any wealth as of yet, I would recommend you read this book so that when your wealth hits you, you know what to do with it in a smart and knowledgeable way.

I love financial tips, since I consider those who spend the time reading and learning personal finances being smarter and ahead of the crowd achieving a well-deserved prosperity on the long term.

This book is an excellent addition to my collection; I love the fact that meets any pocket. I would say consciousness is the main point to get well financially. Once you know how much you spend and on what, you can start figuring out methods to save some of that amount. For instance 100$ could not seem much but gives you and extra 1200/year which can be greatly used for emergency instead of burdening you more with credit card debts. And in 10 years you can save 12000, and this is something, all just with 100/month. And saving 100$ per month is very easy if you start applying little tricks and some awareness about your spending.

The practicality of this book meets the needs of any type of reader, you can find ideas for that minimum 100$/month without any effort. And don't forget the golden rule: before any spending put aside a certain percentage, at least 10% according many books on the subject and my own personal experience. Anyone can live without 10% regardless your 1k, 10k, or 100k income. So put aside that percentage of your choice and then use the tips from this book (for grocery, food, retirement planning, healthcare, lifestyle, vacation, credit cards, kids ), and in no time you will have the first feelings of success, control and eventually prosperity, depending on your efficiency during the process. I also love the fact that the author suggests a 52 weeks period which is just enough to see the fruits and get more and more motivated with your new successful habits. Try it and you will see.

Recommended read!
