Living on a Dime Ebook Review - 500 Ideas for Saving Money!

Wow! I have to say my recent small purchase of this living on a dime e-book probably will help me learn how to save money. My goal is to get my life back on track after losing a job while now struggling through the recession. It's hard enough to just get by with unemployment checks, while trying to make ends meet. So when I discovered this lady's book with 500 money saving tips, I figured why not spend a few bucks and see what it has to offer? I was pleasantly surprised and know it will help quite a bit with getting things straight financially.

Basically the book, written by a Penny Pinchin' Mama, is divided up into about 20 different sections. She covers all sorts of ways to save money including ways to save on your grocery shopping, save on utilities, save on home improvements, decorating, cars, clothing, cleaning supplies and more! I found plenty of useful tips presented in this simple to read e-book that will help me save money and hopefully build my savings back up some too. She doesn't sugar coat her writing either or BS, she completely spells out what steps she took to really increase her savings at home.

In her book she tells you exactly how she was struggling just like many of us are to make ends meet. She earned just $12,000 a year salary and had 2 children to care for. She and her children were able to miraculously live off just $5,000 while she devoted the other $7,000 to paying down her debt. Once she had managed to pay off her home and debts, she became ill to the point she had to go on disability. So her story rings true for many of us. It becomes stressful and tough to know how to save money, feed everyone and be able to afford other necessities such as clothing and cleaning supplies, or gas for the car. Taking the advice of this woman in her e-book, I see no reason people won't be able to improve their financial situations by using her tips. You can read more about her e-books here. The one I am talking about is the least expensive one on their site, with 500 ways for you to save money. Enjoy, use her money saving tips, and start watching more money go into your pocket or bank account!
