Glossary Appendixes Basic Budget Worksheet Price Book Template Smart Spending Resource Directory About the Author Index What Others are Saying About "The Smart Spending Guide" "Just a few words to "Thank You" for all the help your book has given me in saving money, especially in the area of groceries. I ordered your book in Aug. 08' and have read it over and over and it has paid off! I have to tell you that I am a mom of 3 growing boys (10,14 and 18) and your concepts have helped me keep them well fed. I also ordered your coupon inserts and have a notebook that goes with me all the time. I have passed my copy of your book onto other friends and have encouraged them to try it. I received an email from my closest friend last week in S.C. and she was so excited. She read your book, clipped her coupons and went shopping and saved around $60.00. Your information is invaluable and I appreciate all the insight and information you provide, especially in these days of economic stress! It actually makes grocery shopping fun!!!" -Trina C. Williams, Rocky Mount, February 5, 2009 "I'm reading your book and it is WONDERFUL! It helps reinforce everything you went over in your workshop. I'm already thinking that copies of the book will make some nice Christmas gifts for my nieces who are just starting out on their own." -Lorie Allen, Raleigh, NC August 2007 "Your book is truly inspiring. If I don't get at least 40% off my bill, I feel like I have cheated my self. I have cut our $250/ week spending down to just at $100/week and we don't eat out as the rule, but as the exception and don't miss it. WHAT A SAVINGS!! I am working on getting that $100 down to $60-$70. I know it will come with time." -Tonya Richard, Duncan, SC "You did a fabulous job Faye! There is so much useful information included in this book!" -Carole Rhodes, Charlotte, NC "Thanks for doing what you do. You are an encouragement to so many. I finished your book and it was excellent. I was so thankful that healthy eating was a priority in the book and in your family. I assumed that many coupons were only for processed foods, and learned so much from the book." -Paulette Shilling, Cary, NC "This book contains hints and guidelines for living a debt free, FUN-filled life that doesn't make you think you're sacrificing everything fun known to mankind to live it. In fact, she helps you discover the joy of living within your means. -Rachael Woodard, The Coupon Clippers.com "I am1/2 way through the book with lots of "aha that's how she does it!!" There are creative ways to save that I never thought of! There are lots of helpful tips in there. She tells you ways to double dip, when I thought I was being savvy single dipping!!" - Laura K, Clayton, NC "You did an awesome job on the book!

I have started on the book tonight and am feeling pretty good about the financial road that we are about to head down." -Gina Shires, Willow Springs, NC "I was at the Clayton Junior Women's Club last night and we really enjoyed it and will definitely benefit from your advice. I bought your book but since my husband does the grocery shopping I was unsure whether he would take the coupon book (Smart Spending Coupon Organizer) to the store. His reaction was, "Anything to save money!", so now I urgently need a coupon book! I was SO excited to get the sales paper this morning and start comparing prices and making my grocery list!". -Darla Aldridge, Clayton, NC "I have nearly finished your book - lots of great ideas and advice in there!" -Dana Schaefer, Garner, NC Copyright 2005-2011 smartspendingresources.com.
