Descriptive words such as “tightwad” and “frugal” may have had a negative connotation at one time, but given the state of our current economy – these two words have taken on new meaning for most individuals.

A book that has been highly touted as “brilliant” by its readers, The Complete Tightwad Gazette by Amy Dacyczyn has become a must read for those who find it necessary to cut back on expenses in order to get through this economic recession.

Currently priced at only $22.95, the product description for The Tightwad Gazette states that:

“In a newsletter published from May 1990 to December 1996 as well as in three enormously successful books, Amy Dacyczyn established herself as the expert of economy. Now The Complete Tightwad Gazette brings together all of her best ideas and thriftiest thinking into one volume, along with new articles never published before in book format. Dacyczyn describes this collection as “the book I wish I’d had when I began my adult life.” Packed with humor, creativity, and insight, The Complete Tightwad Gazette includes hundreds of tips and topics, such as:

* How to transform old blue jeans into potholders and quilts
* Ten painless ways to save $100 this year
* Ways to dry up dry-cleaning costs
* Inexpensive gifts
* Slashing your electric bill
* Frugal fix-its
* Saving on groceries
* Avoiding credit card debt
* Using items you were about to throw away (milk jugs, plastic meat trays, and more!)
* Recipes galore, from penny-pinching pizza to toaster pastries, and much more”

This comprehensive book not only teaches you how to save money, but offers tightwad tips, frugal living tips, and many tightwad suggestions on how to develop a new mindset when it comes to fiscal responsibility. In addition, Ms. Daczycyn utilizes her own brand of humor to impart important information regarding your finances.

It is very comprehensive and anyone can utilize it on a daily basis for ideas on how to live a more tightwad life. Some have called it their second Bible! The advice given is up-to-date, relative to today’s environment, and is for anyone who wants to cut back on expenses and develop a budget that is reasonable, efficient, and yes – frugal.

The price of gas is past unreal, and it’s getting higher and higher. What the big oil companies (who are the ones raking in the dollars from your pockets) don’t want you to know is that vehicles don’t have to run on just gas. After all, if consumers (who are the ones making the oil companies so much money by buying their expensive gas) knew how to save money on gas, the big oil companies wouldn’t be getting rich off of us.

Something that’s been talked about for some time is using water to run vehicles in addition to gas. It doesn’t replace the gas, it stretches it, doubling or tripling the amount of mileage your car gets on a tank.

So why aren’t more people doing this? First, these kinds of cars aren’t available to purchase new. Because of that, most people simply don’t think it would work because they aren’t available for purchase. Another reason is that people are reluctant to try something new, to tinker with what works (even though the way it works now cost over $4.00 a gallon in some areas and will be more before the summer is up). Simply put, a lot of people are afraid of change. Even if something costs a person as much as a gallon of gas costs, most would prefer to pay that high price per gallon than to try something new and revotionary that can more than double their gas mileage.

If you are one of those that are fed up with the high price of gas, fed up with the big oil companies getting richer and richer while we struggle weekly to pay for a tank of gas, fed up with having to choose between putting gas in the car or paying the rent and eating, then perhaps it’s time to try something new. Perhaps it’s time to try something that will save money on the high price of gas. Perhaps it’s time to convert your car to run on water.

And the beauty of this is that you don’t have to pay someone thousands of dollars to modify your car. You don’t have to wait for the modified cars to be on the car lot to buy one new and keep paying the high cost of gas. You can easily do this yourself, at home, in a very short period of time.

Are rising gas prices killing your budget? How much do you have to pay for a gallon of gas? $3.20? $3.50? $4.00? $5.00??? MORE???? Where does it end???

The gas pump MONSTER is raising the prices of gas. Sure, they go up and down. They go up a dollar and down 50 cents…… to condition us to think 50 cents more is a good deal!

For those of us who have to drive back and forth to work everyday – in gas guzzling traffic – every penny hurts. What about traveling? A lot of people can’t even afford to fly to their travel destinations, but now even DRIVING to your travel destination is becoming unaffordable!

So with the ever-raising costs of filling your tank full of gas, there’s no shame in cutting every corner to save a buck.

All a person needs is the know-how, the tips and tricks, the truth and not the old rumors……of how to make that tank last until next payday! I’ve written it all down for you and put it in a report I like to call…
