But life is for living, so why should budgeting mean a miserable existence? Instead, discover the pleasures of saving by becoming a frugal shopper, cutting energy and transport bills, growing vegetables and eating wild food. The Frugal Life is a tried and tested way of life, covering a huge range of topics, from growing and cooking and entertaining friends and children to enjoying Christmas without debt. It will also show you how to set a budget, cope with redundancy and cultivate a frugal nest egg for the future. This book is ideal for everyone, from the struggling student and first jobber, to families and pensioners getting used to a smaller budget - in fact anyone trying to live life for less.

The Frugal Life
You know I’m not the biggest fan of the word ‘frugal’. So when I heard about this book, well I was skeptical. However, when I checked out its accompanying Web site, I have to say I was hooked on finding out more. The books is The Frugal Life…How to Spend Less and Live More by Piper Terrett ISBN 978 1-90487 155 2 from The Good Life Press $14.95. Terrett is a financial journalist in the UK and writes the Frugal Life blog at http://frugal-life.spaces.live.com While the book and the Web site are aimed at primarily a UK audience, you’ll still find lots of tips that you can use no matter where you live. I really enjoyed reading the book and hopefully I’ll be chatting with Terrett sometime soon so she can pass along more money saving tips to us.
