Frugal Living
Angela Pierce · 2013
45/100
👎 Skip It
Angela Pierce writes from real lived experience with frugal living, which gives this a genuine, grounded voice. But at just 34 pages and over a decade old, it's really more of a quick-tips pamphlet than a full guide, and the cost-of-living specifics have likely aged out of relevance. A light refresher at best.
