I used to own one, but now I rely on library copies. Trying to control clutter as well as money. :) I did make a copy of her adjustable muffin recipe to keep at home, though.

I use to have the combined version. After reading it numerous times I gave it to a former member from here.

Now if I want inspiration, I get it from the library.

Yes- The complete version, although it is in pretty bad shape now. Got it off Bay a few years ago then left it outside in the rain when I was very pregnant....

Yes, I have a copy plus I have a copy of each issue of the newsletters she published. I was very sad when the newsletter ended.

I have the complete version....HARDCOVER! I'm waaaayyyyy cooler than all of you! LOL!!!!!:D

Seriously, though, I bought it on e-bay & I didn't even know there was a hardcover until it arrived! Imagine my JOY!!!! :)

Amy is my hero........it's the first book I read many years ago on my mission of frugality. :)

I got the first volumn after I heard about her and then subscribed to her newsletter for the rest. I have kept all the newsletters in a big binder and read them occasionally and always learn something each time I read.

Yes, I have the Complete Tightwad Gazette in hardcover. It is one that I probably will never get rid of.
