Review:

Sara Lundberg, author and blogger of  Budget Savvy Diva, works hard to bring you a considerable number of tips in this little number of 160 pages.  I would like to consider myself a frugal shopper with relying almost solely on one income for our family over the last four years, but was pleasantly surprised by how many tips I had yet to learn from this book.  Did you know you could freeze skim milk or that a 5 or 9 at the beginning of a coupon barcode would give you an idea if the store that doubles coupons will or will not be likely to double the coupon you have?

Budget Savvy Diva’s Guide to Slashing Your Grocery Bill by 50% or More is not about extreme couponing, but tips for using coupons, common sales cycles to watch for, times of the day to look for the best price on some grocery store items, plus much more.  Sara also talks about the importance of meal planning, but she tries to break it down so if you aren’t comfortable jumping into a week or month right away, you can pace yourself.  Freezer meals are also discussed.  I can’t wait to try the budget savvy recipes Sara shares from her kitchen too.

This book would be a great reference for a young adult learning to live on his/her own, newlyweds, someone expanding their family, or just anyone looking to learn how to get the best deals on grocery items for their home.
