    Here's what I did when I wanted to read up about frugality (I had already read TWG): I went to my library and found the call numbers for TWG, then I checked out everything else in that section. I ended up with a huge stack of books to read (with a lot of repetitive info, but lots of useful stuff, too).

    After I finished those, I looked up others by the authors I liked and requested them through the library.

    I like all books by Cynthia Yates. She retired a few years ago, but you can probably find them at used book sites if not the library.

    Great thread!

    Looks like I'll have a lot more to look up at the library!
