Item Description...
Overview
Provides women with tips on buying consumer products and saving money, covering such items as clothing, cars, entertainment, travel, and insurance, while still maintaining a sense of style and fashion.
Publishers Description
A witty, recession-era guide to being thrifty while not forgoing the fabulous.
Today's woman may have a dwindling stock portfolio, but that shouldn't make her bite one well-manicured nail with worry. Rosalyn Hoffman dishes up the wisdom women need to get perfect style without busting what's left of their bank accounts.
The author is a recession-era fashion guru, travel agent, grooming consultant, therapist, sommelier, and life coach all rolled into one, and with this book vows no coupon clipping, Prada depriving, carb hating allowed. Because it doesn't take oodles of moola to live well- and that's one trend that will never go out of style.

 | I laughed My Head Off! Jan 7, 2010 |
The author is a very funny lady. She is saucy, sassy, and sophisticated--all in one.
I bought the book for my 85 year old grandmother and she gave it to all her nursing home gal pals. Despite passing away shortly thereafter, I do not believe the book had anything to do with her demise. Thus, I highly recommend it! I love you Grandma. | | | | Thoroughly entertaining, incredibly useful! Dec 30, 2009 |
I laughed on almost every page as I read this book. Hoffman's writing is witty, engaging and edgy. Her voice and tone are snarky and sharp. Not only did I laugh out loud while reading, but I also actually learned some pretty useful tips.
I agree with the previous reviewer -- Hoffman's advice is practical and easy to understand. Because of her tips, I can actually see real savings I will be able to make (without sacrificing any quality of life!).
Also, the book's a great gift. I already have ordered copies for all of my girlfriends. | | | | So glad I found this book!! Dec 30, 2009 |
| Cool. I wasn't sure what to expect but this is really funny. Hey, I'm not that old and so I don't get really uptight when people say politically incorrect things (love Colbert), so I love the idea of being a bitch. Anyway, this book is awesome. It's full of smart jokes and I really learned a lot. Like I never knew the way stores bought stuff and planned to mark them down or about the sample sale sites that are springing up all over the place online to buy high end at low price. And, since I'm in my first apartment the ideas about how to decorate are actually really helpful. Pamper the Bitch may be my favorite chapter---love the pet stuff. Anyway, I heard about this from a friend and downloaded it today, read it before she did (ha! beat her to it) and now I think everyone should buy it because it's just fun to read. | | | | Bitches UNITE!

I got this book for Christmas (this site is SLOW, it's been at my bookstore for almost a week). It's pretty funny (warning: soem of the jokes are raunchy!). The author has lots of practical hints that help you rethink the way you shop and generally get along. I found it pretty helpful. Travel, diet, decorating, finance, and make-up! it's all in there.
Note: This author also has a blog where she gives advice and comments on current events. As my mother used to say, "I like her sass." | | | | Hilarious! Dec 29, 2009 |
| I never heard of this author before, and really like her voice! Naughty, funny, and direct. Some sections remind you to do what you already knew... standard money-saving stuff, but it's all relayed in a fresh voice, which makes it fun to read (and makes me more likely to actually use the advice). Most of the book is original tips for living well on a budget, like specific products to try, good brands, places to buy stuff, info on how the retail world works, so you don't fall victim to their traps.
