Book Review, and a good deal.....

I got a "good freebie" on Tuesday.  It arrived by Purolator.  It's 96 Keurig cups of coffee.  48 of some Pumpkin Flavour and 48 of  decaffeinated.  One tiny little problem I don't have a Keurig coffee maker.  However dd does and it's at our house along with her other wedding presents!!  So I called her about my predicament and she said I could use her coffee maker.  Isn't dd a trooper!!!

Money mastery isn't hard when you know the rules. Let 7 Money Rules for Life change your future from uncertain to rock-solid--no matter what your income level.


I have to say I am a fan of Mary Hunt's work, so was looking forward to reading and reviewing this book.  In my humble opinion this book is good for those of you who are just realizing you have to do something about the way you spend your money and deal with your debt.

For those of us who have been there and done that and have sort of figured it out, this book would be a refresher of what information you already know and maybe what you have stored in the back of your mind to pull out and use one day.

I do prefer her other books especially "The Cheap-Skate Monthly Money Makeover" by Mary Hunt as that features more personalized stories and situations.

Stars out of 5 : 4 not a bad book, very helpful and worth while buying or borrowing, as even if we think we know it all, we always have room to learn something new.

There is a great deal on at Groupon, $15 for $30 worth of books at BookCloseOuts.com

Great site use it a lot. Good for both Canada and the States, it does bill in US Dollars and for us in Canada, it's shipped out of Southern Ontario and comes really fast.  Not sure if you can use the following with the Groupon, but I do have TWO $7 off codes when you buy $35 worth of books.  Just let me know if you would like one, by leaving me a separate comment with your email address in it, I won't publish it.  First come first served basis.
