"I have read this book cover to cover numerous times and I keep going back. Amy Dacyczyn created one of the most useful books that I've found. She covers such topics as how to save money, when to stock up on items, how to give things new life, and amazingly brilliant uses for things. One of my favorites is an egg substitute of soy flour that is cheap and is healthy for you. The best thing is, no one knows you substituted it for the eggs! This book is a must for everyone's library."
"This book had some really good recipes. I especially liked the pizza dough recipe that you make in the food processer. Amy's story about how she and her husband saved up the money to buy their dream house was inspiring. But some of the tips are extreme. I doubt that I will be washing and reusing my baggies, even here in Germany where you have to sort every bit of your trash for recycling. I have three separate trash cans in my pantry. One for plastics and cans, one for paper and one for regular gross garbage. We also have 4 cans that they collect on garbage days. But I enjoyed reading it. I recently used the tea dying tip for dying all my nylons the same color. So there is probably some tips you might use."
"This is considered by many to be the frugal living "bible." I found lots of the specific information outdated (food costs, little mention of internet,etc.). However, Dacyczyn's editorials throughout were terrific--she does a great job of distilling down the essence of stewardship, frugality, poverty v. wealth, and other related concepts. The book is huge--a compendium of 6+ years of her newsletter--and it's not terribly organized. A fun read, but sometimes hard to find a specific piece."
"This book truly was amazing. Amy Dacyczyn, "the Frugal Zealot," has definitely earned her title. Using the principles and meathods she outlines, she has made the perfect life for herself and her large family on a seriously tiny income. Even if you are less than zealous for tightwadery, you won't be able to help finding the articles entertaining and fun to read. You may even find yourself making a few changes here and there! At the very least, stick it in your powder room and wait for your guests to start asking questions!"
