3.0 out of 5 stars Good beginner frugality advice, September 28, 2010
This review is from: Cut Your Grocery Bill in Half with America's Cheapest Family: Includes So Many Innovative Strategies You Won't Have to Cut Coupons (Paperback)
Everyone knows I am a frugal hack. If it can be done cheaper, I want to know how to do it myself. So obviously, you know I'd enjoy reading Cut You Grocery Bill In Half.

This book was full of tips and suggestions to find strategic ways to cut costs in your home. No matter what your family size, or how you shop, there were savvy ideas and information for every income.

From ways to store food, to cheaper shopping without coupons, to food storage and meal planning, the Economides showed how it worked for them, and how it can work for you.

I really found this book to be helpful. Although most of it was common sense, I can see lots of tips that can help novice frugals find their place and cut their costs. Alot of it....ok, most of it, I already knew, but it is nice to have a helpful guide to turn to for quick ideas. And the meals for pennies recipes at the end was a nice bonus.


This is a good book for families who want to save their... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Cut Your Grocery Bill in Half with America's Cheapest Family by Steve and Annette Economides, September 28, 2010
This review is from: Cut Your Grocery Bill in Half with America's Cheapest Family: Includes So Many Innovative Strategies You Won't Have to Cut Coupons (Paperback)
The title alone does a great job of explaining the purpose of this particular book. The Economide family of 7 shares tips they have learned and perfected over the past 25 years as they have earned the right to be named as "America's Cheapest Family." Filled with tips for every level of bargain shopper, from beginning to expert, every family can benefit in some way from this book. This family has perfected their technique to the point that they only shop once a month,so they demonstrate how to save money by planning ahead and going to the store less often. Start by going weekly, then every couple of weeks, gradually taking control of impulse spending and buying whatever is placed in front of you.

What Dave Ramsey does for finances, Steve and Annette Economides do for the grocery bill. By removing common excuses of too little time, not knowing how to cook, bad location with few store choices, or the lack of coupons and sales ads, they encourage their readers to take charge... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Their Math Simply Doesn't Add Up, November 9, 2010
This review is from: Cut Your Grocery Bill in Half with America's Cheapest Family: Includes So Many Innovative Strategies You Won't Have to Cut Coupons (Paperback)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
The Economides claim to feed a family of seven for $350 a month while eating healthy food. I don't think their numbers add up. At my local grocery store, a cheap loaf of white bread costs $2.50 and contains 1400 calories. To eat 2,000 calories a day of bread and free water would cost $3.57 a person. For a family of seven that would be $775 dollars a month. I understand it is possible to practically eat for free if you are a master coupon clipper, but companies usually only offer coupons on highly processed, convenience foods. There aren't a lot of coupons on foods like fresh apples, lettuce and carrots. The Economides claim to eat healthy and not have to use coupons to do it, but I doubt that is possible on $350 a month for a family of seven. There simply aren't many foods, even on sale, that are cheaper per calorie than cheap white bread.

If this book were written in the pre-Internet era, I'd probably give it more stars, despite the author's dubious mathematical... Read more
