I was just reading this article on Yahoo News about a family who lives on just $14,000 per-year. They said this book America's Cheapest Family Gets You Right on the Money helped them. I found it on amazon on sale for $7.87.
And I'm thinking about getting this cook book for $12.21 from amazon. I eat all my money every week. So only spending $75 a week on food would be great! Anyone have this cook book already? E-mail me, let me know if you like it or not.
