    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.

    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!!!
