Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
Much like the conundrum of the chicken and the egg, it is difficult to decide whether we were born a nation of consumers or whether the shopping "jones" was forced upon us through external influences. Yet regardless of how we come by our love or disdain of worldly goods, this third in the How to verb (Just about) Everything series concentrates on mastering the arts of acquisition and deacquisition, from intangibles such as happiness and time to uncommon items like a Tuscan villa or a personal gardener. With the help of a dozen journalists (including one Californian "who never met a thrift shop she didn't like"), editor Wuorio reviews and describes more than 500 activities in enough detail to calm a nervous beginner. Each includes (when appropriate) step-by-step instructions, tips (such as "know your limits for online auctions"), and more than occasional warnings (e.g., "coupons, like produce, are perishable. Use them before they expire"). Meaty enough to serve as a long-term reference. Barbara Jacobs

5.0 out of 5 stars Took me by surprise!, November 12, 2003
By A Customer
I was recently given a copy of this book for my birthday. At first glance I thought oh, great, another book I'll never look at, but then started leafing through it. It's packed with information on things my husband and I have been recently shopping around for, like a digital camcorder and a new lawnmower. There are loads of tips on how to make the most of your money and things to watch out for. But there's also stuff I never thought of: Hire a body guard, buy bonds, sell your body to science, buy a hourse trailer, sell a used bike?-and it's funny! My husband paws through it before he goes to Home Depot to get a good read on just about everything he needs. There'll be a lot of people getting this book for Christmas.
