Good on saving resources, not so much on earning,
By
This review is from: The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet (Mom's Guide to Earning & Saving Thousands on the Internet) (Paperback)
I have been making money online since 1998 and am always checking out resources to help me make more. The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet offers some terrific savings ideas and resources in one place. It's especially helpful for busy moms who don't have time to research and investigate resources themselves.
I was very intersted in the earning aspect especially since it covered surveys and mystery shopping. I still don't feel this is a great way to earn income from home. I have tested many survey sites and have yet to get paid by the legitimate ones. Turns out I don't qualify for most surveys I'm sent. (I'm a 40 year old mom of two, married who owns a home...). I've gotten a free lunch with mystery shopping, but that won't pay the mortgage. If you are looking for great resources and ideas to save money using the Internet, this is a good resource. But if you want to make money, this isn't your book.

The perfect guide,

This review is from: The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet (Mom's Guide to Earning & Saving Thousands on the Internet) (Paperback)
...Webb and Heck have done all the dirty work for the reader. They've combed the web, and found out how to navigate online shopping and dealmaking with the least amount of headache and fuss.
This book explains the mystery in mystery shopping, and outlines other moneymaking tools on the internet, including an easy to get started guide to auctions. It points out where and how to get the best deals on whatever it is you're looking to purchase. Webb and Heck also take the time to carefully explain the most common scams and pitfalls, which makes the book invaluable. All in all, a fabulous guide!

Whether you're more interested in "earning," or only in "saving" (me!), this book is more than worth the investment of the purchase price.

Best book I've seen on this topic!!,
By Lisa "Internet bargain hunter" (Alabama) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet (Mom's Guide to Earning & Saving Thousands on the Internet) (Paperback)
I'm known as an internet savings queen among my friends, and I have pondered writing a book to share my tips. Well, Barb Webb and Maureen Heck beat me to the punch and did a fabulous job of it!
If you want to know how to find great deal and freebies on the internet, read this book. The authors shared every site and technique I use and dozens more. It's easy to read and easy to navigate. This is money well spent, even for the most frugal among us.

The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet,
By
This review is from: The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet (Mom's Guide to Earning & Saving Thousands on the Internet) (Paperback)
This book is a great resource for oodles of websites for almost everything. Over the last few years I have spent a lot of time on the internet and already am aware of most of the content offered, but there was lots of stuff that was new to me as well. I was hoping for a little more on the earning 'thousands'aspect, but I think that is in part due to limitations on what is available on the internet. Of course, it also depends on how much time you are willing to spend doing these things. Overall, I thought this was a great comprehensive guide to anyone who uses the internet, not just moms.

Super Savings!!!,
This review is from: The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet (Mom's Guide to Earning & Saving Thousands on the Internet) (Paperback)
From one frugal mom to another- this book is absolutely worth every penny! It is chocked full of tons of useful information. I only wish I'd had it sooner. I thought I knew quite a bit about saving and about the Internet, but I'm amazed by how many new tips I learned. I really appreciated how everything is presented in a clear way and how they focus on things that can be done without disrupting your life or cutting into the precious time we already have too little of. Highly, highly recommended!

Expected more,

This review is from: The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet (Mom's Guide to Earning & Saving Thousands on the Internet) (Paperback)
I was so excited to get this book--only to be disappointed. Most everything in the book I either already knew, or was REALLY common sense. This mom wishes she would have got it from the library. I could've saved money on the internet that way! ha ha
