Lots and lots off sound money saving advice for anyone who is struggling with debt. The book lists some good ways to both find and save money. One thing mentioned that I heard about before was the unclaimed money and property sites. It's amazing what is there if you look. Definitely a good tip and worth checking into.Some of the tips were pretty common knowledge, like discount shopping or using coupons, but a lot of creative ideas too. There are tips to get your credit report for free and make sure it's accurate, to paying off your credit cards faster- something a lot of people have a problem with.  There is also a lot of good info on saving for and buying a home. If you have a home there are some great ideas to save on your mortgage, like getting rid of PMI, or how to shorten the length of your loan (and saving many thousands!).Save by complaining! This was a good one, and I liked the story about complaining to Toyota about their car to get it fixed. As they say, the squeaky wheel gets the grease! The author saved $500 for complaining. Nice going!Overall a really good book. Some of the tips are fairly common sense, but there is enough here that anyone reading it will find some valuable tips inside this book.
