Is Miserly Moms Worth Reading?
If you feel a need to cut domestic spending in your life, Miserly Moms is undoubtedly a worthwhile read. Aside from The Tightwad Gazette, this is probably the best collection of tips I’ve ever read on trimming domestic spending – and it’s certainly quite concise and focused. If most of the advice above seemed very old hat to you, though, you may not get too much out of the book. Having said that, though, for most people, the advice above is not old hat. For me, I pulled out a few useful tips, but this book was not a world-changer for me. However, I can certainly see it being very valuable for some people I know, and I’ve already passed along my copy to a friend that’s also a stay-at-home mom. For her, Miserly Moms could very well be an invaluable read.
