THE GOOD LIFE FOR LESS

From the founder of the website MomAdvice.com and member of Wal-Mart's Eleven Moms Network, a guide to raising happy, healthy families on a tight budget.

When Amy Clark and her husband found themselves in unexpected financial trouble right before the birth of their first child, they quickly learned the importance of smart budgeting and making a little money go a long way. On her popular website MomAdvice.com and through her work as a spokesperson for companies including Wal-Mart, Kenmore, Minute Maid, and more, Amy shares this advice with more than 160,000 visitors each month.
In this book, Amy offers up a clever lifestyle plan that is long on creativity and short on cost to achieve a peaceful home, a loving family, and a balanced budget. Her advice isn’t dated or impractical, and it doesn’t ask families to sacrifice quality of life for financial solvency. Highlights include:
• Setting a reasonable budget – and learning how to stick to it
• Scoring half price or less on nearly everything
• Cooking delicious, frugal meals for any size family
• Managing an organized, clean house without wasting valuable time or money
• Creating family traditions that kids will remember forever without breaking the bank
