Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 01 7, 2013
This book has some great ideas for saving money.  Yes, some of them are common-sense ideas as other reviewers have mentioned.  But if you're a young person just starting out, this is a good book, especially since it has the added benefit of including recipes.There are also some ideas that an "old-timer" like me hadn't thought of.  For instance, my freezer is so crowded, sometimes I forget what's in there.  The author recommends keeping a list on a magnet pad of what's in your freezer.  A simple idea, but I never thought of it!  I was also never clear on the difference between "best before" date and "use by" date, which Louise explains.  Louise also provides some energy efficiency tips, which are good for saving money, and frugal ideas for meals.This book covers a variety of topics, and it's one I'd recommend for those new to the kitchen as well as those who are more experienced.
