Here's what readers of America's Cheapest Family and The HomeEconomiser are sayingEven Smart Spenders Can Save More Inspired by your advice, I bought a perfect-fitting suit at a high-end consignment shop for $24.99 and two quality silk ties, which looked unworn, for $8 each. I wore the suit at a family function this weekend and yesterday to tape six television segments. Greg Karp - Spending Smart — Syndicated Columnist for the Tribune Syndicate They're funny . . . and have good judgment too! Archie Richards, Syracuse, New York - Laundered Money Hi Everyone, 
You'll never believe this, but I was sitting at the laundromat today reading the sample issue of the HomeEconomiser you sent me. When I got to the subscription info I debated spending twelve dollars for something I really don't "need." First I thought I wouldn't, then I knew I WANTED TO, then the voice inside me said, "It's only twelve dollars. Then I firmly decided NO! I don't really need it! When I opened up the washing machine I found the enclosed twenty dollar bill! So I DO want to subscribe. Oh, and by the way, "Keep the change!" Kathy from Mill Valley, California College Re-Education Linda and James from San Jose, California You're Funny and You Even Make Sense! Julie from Chandler, Arizona Budget Series Brings Peace of Mind Not only has your budget series (June, July/August and September 2004) saved me money and time, but it has created tremendous peace of mind. It is truly changing my life for the better. Thanks Rebecca from Aurora, Colorado Subscription Supplements Social Security! Tom and Judy from Selah, Washington Budget Lifts Burdens Hi there, I just wanted to write and let you know I am working on a family budget now! I feel like a burden has been lifted and I know that I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! Thank you for your help! I am so excited to get started and see progress in our finances as a family! You are truly a blessing! Tara from Alaska Pure Gold for Grand Kids — Grandma likes it too! Your book corner each month is perfect. I have four young grandchildren and your recommendations and reviews are a god-send. The books you select have sound values, traditions and history. They are pure gold to me! All the little ones listen intently when I read the stories to them. Thank you so very much. Elizabeth from Mercer Island, Washington New tricks for an "Old Dog!" Margaret from Lehigh Acres, Florida Something for everyone! Keep up the great work, your newsletter provides lots of variety and contains something for all of us (and I'm over 75 years-old!). I've saved over $250 this year by cancelling my seldom viewed satellite TV service! Zee from Grand Prairie, Texas Neighborly Advice I love your articles and stories, your newsletter shares so much personal information that I feel like you're my next door neighbor. Keep up the good work! Jeanne from Columbia, South Carolina The Windfalls Plan really works!  One of the first HomeEconomiser issues I received was about Windfalls. I found it interesting and told my husband about it that same night. We both wrote down 5 things we each wished for. Some things on our two lists were the same things, some were not. We combined these and added debt payoff (50%) and charities (giving -10%). I typed the list up with a prayer at the bottom.Within 3 and a half months my husband received 2 raises at work and we received 2 windfalls totaling $10,700.00!!!!!!!! All completely unexpected. We completely paid off credit card debt and achieved a couple of our windfall goals. Our other goals now have nice starting points too. It was so wonderful to know exactly where the money would go before it came in. No stress. No arguments or debates. It was all written down. My husband also received 3 gift cards to local dinner spots and one to a movie theater. We were able to treat the whole family to an afternoon at the movies, something we almost never do. We have been so amazed with the blessings and prosperity that has come our way recently. I absolutely love your newsletter. We have always been pretty good at keeping our debt down but we've been very "reactive" to our monthly paychecks. Not proactive at all. Your two most recent newsletters helped me so much. I am so motivated to get these accounts going. I have dedicated this year to making our finances proactive and to work for us. Thank you, thank you so much. I'm Thinking Cheap!  One of my favorite articles was, Is Your Money Disciplined? (June 04). All the Back Fence ideas help me save money too. As a matter of fact, the entire newsletter makes me think more like an economizer. Dana from Rochester, Minnesota Mom is Cooking Again! I really love your newsletter. It's just what I've been needing all these years. It’ really helped me in more ways than one. I'm a single mom and for years it's always been easier for me to go to a fast food place or restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And of course, I never had money for other things we needed. But thank God you opened up my eyes! I have since started looking through the ads on Wednesdays and I've gone to the grocery store (something I haven't done for years). My fridge, freezer and pantry are overstuffed and boy is my family happy. Mom is cooking again!!! Not only that, I've saved money and been able to take care of our other needs that I didn't have money for before. Thanks for your help! Jean from Dallas, Texas I'm Saving Money I am an avid reader of HomeEconomiser. The practical tips really do help and I am saving money. The tips are great and everything you cover is in-depth, and practical. I really like this format and hope it continues. Jordan from Virginia Beach, Virginia Psychological Help! I loved your articles pertaining to Menu Planning and Grocery Shopping. Also loved your detailed budgeting articles. Your book corner comes in handy when looking for quality books for my grandchildren. Your newsletter is a wonderful psychological reinforcement. You're doing a great job - Keep up the good work. Sally from Boerne, Texas I'm immeasurably content I loved your article on contentment (March 04) - it really made me think. I can't put a finger on exactly how much money your newsletter has helped me save, but it is a significant amount. Heather from McGregor, Iowa It's Never Too Late! Tim from Cincinnati, Ohio  My kids aren't fussingI loved your article on Freezer Cooking (February 04). I have two small kids and the time it saves means no more fussing for them.
