Is The Reader’s Digest Penny Pincher’s Almanac Worth Reading?
If you’re into frugality at all, The Reader’s Digest Penny Pincher’s Almanac is a book you will get some value out of. The sheer spread of tips is wide enough that virtually everyone will find a good idea or two. There is one minor drawback, though. With so many tips in such a thin volume, many tips aren’t given their due diligence and receive only minimal coverage in the book. There are a lot of good ideas here, but in places, the thoughts behind them aren’t fully formed. That’s why it’s useful to supplement this book with some good internet searching for more information on specific tips. Having said that, this is definitely one worth picking up for reference’s sake. I was able to find it rather quickly for free via PaperBackSwap, though you may be less patient.
