This extraordinary book is based on the collective wisdom of the scores of contributors to the MoneySaving Old-Style section of MoneySavingExpert.com - the award-winning, trend-setting website which, in less than four years, has attracted over one million UK users a month. The Old-Style forum started when many of the older visitors to the site decided to share their accumulated knowledge with other younger users. It has swiftly developed into a discussion on living life cheaply, healthily, ethically and thriftily, with all generations together searching for a path to Old-Style bliss. Edited by Martin Lewis who, as well as being the founder of MoneySavingExpert.com, is a newspaper columnist, TV and radio money guru and presenter, and author of the bestselling The Money Diet, this lively book cannot fail to appeal to anyone who is interested in living better for less. The book includes hints and tips on: - How to budget - Cooking from scratch - Cleaning for pennies - Gardening - Making homemade gifts - How to shop

I have stocked up on this book for presents. I regularly use his website but its not always convenient to get on the computer. I recently had a blocked sink and went to the index, found what to do, and successfully unblocked the it with vinegar and bicarb, which cost a fraction of the price of the bottle of unblocking chemical stuff I used to buy. Lots of common sense practical tips, recipes etc. I recommend this book wholeheartedly.

Customer rating: 1 out of 5 stars You get more from his website... for free!

bought this as a present, and actually didnt give it as a present in the end because i read through some of it and thought it was pretty much useless. most of it is common sense like "dont throw away things you may need", and a lot of it says "for more like this see my website", or "this was taken from my website"... which at the end of the day, is interactive, FREE, and updated constantly

total waste of money. i mean.. i actually didnt give it as a gift in the end because it was that bad.
