Going to be fun discussing this book. Its been a long time since I read it, so I've ordered it from open shelf at the library. Should be here in a couple days.

Lets have fun discussing this book.

I think so many new people are visiting and so many longstanding members that may want to revisit TWG topics, so thought it would be nice to have a forum that specifically discusses TWG.

Thanks Sara. Its been a long time since we discussed TWG. Should be fun.

I love the TWG! Definitely THE book to have on tightwaddery. Thanks for the forum!

You guys have inspired me to get a copy...can't hurt to get some more ideas.

WOOHOO!!!! I love that book! My copy is in FLorida. I'll reread it there!!!!

I actually just pulled my copy off the bookshelf a few days ago thinking I needed to really read it again.......I am excited to be able to share and discuss it with all of you!!:)

I need to reread it again too. This should be a great forum!

well since I have taken the day to do things I want I'm heading out tho the porch with a glass of ice water and re read it again.
Some of it that is

That is the book that inspired me to pay off my credit cards & start saving. It really helped me a lot!

I'll have to dust off my mildewy old copy! (Left it outside when I was pregnant!)

I am on my third "set". I bought the three books twice and keep "losing" them by loaning them out. I finally bought the "complete" one and I won't loan it out to anyone!!

I so glad this forum has been started. Amy Dycyczyn was a such an inspiration for me when I was a young SAHM. I started with the Tightwad Gazette when it was in newsletter form and they were well used over the years. A few years ago I broke down and bought a copy of the Complete Tightwad Gazette. I'll have to get it back out.

I just found out that there is a 3rd book out. I need to get it.
I read books #1 and #2 when my kids were small.
They are grown now. I suppose Amy's children are also.


I love this forum. Thanks!!!

I'll have to dust my CTWG off...need to get back to basics anyway!

I will never be without a copy of the Complete Tightwad Gazette. I actually had been rereading parts of it just over the last week or two, and was so happy to see this forum!

Love the book! I have all three paperbacks, just recently purchased the complete set on ebay. I'm rereading it again. Good tips inside! Though, I'm not as frugal as Amy, it sure does inspire me.

I just bought the complete tightwad gazette this past weekend. Ive been reading it and have found some great ideas. I would say that some of it is a bit overboard for my taste, but over all it is a great book.

L:ooking forward to discussing this one. I need to pull it out and re-read it. Some of the ideas are too much for me but alot of them are great! Nice idea to discuss this
