Reading List: Look After the Pennies


For today's addition to the Reading List, we'll be looking at Look After the Pennies by Tess Reed.

This book contains over a hundred tips for saving money on virtually all aspects of your life. It's broken up into small sections for ease of reading including shopping, utility bills, insurance, groceries, food saving, savings, mortgages and rent, making money, credit cards and debts, holidays, house buying, home improvements, cleaning, travel, health and beauty, family, weddings, funerals, and Christmas.

Some suggestions, however, do appear to be clutching at straws. Additionally, some of the organizations referred to in the text no longer exist. You would also do well to take the legal advice at the back of the book with a pinch of salt as some of the advice is incorrect (for example, a shop is NOT obliged to sell you something at the price that is on the shelf as the book claims).

Interested in this book? You can find it and other Reading List suggestions at Penny's Shop.
