Review Quotes
Harris reminds us that the word thrifty is derived from the word thrive. If we do it right, she promises, living thriftily will make us feel good - not deprived.-- "Montreal Gazette"
It's a solid guide to the virtues of non-consumerism, yet - big relief - doesn't come across as preachy or reeking of environmental goody-goodyism.-- "Toronto Star"
Thrifty is an entertaining read, thanks to the author's witty style and practical anecdotes.-- "Calgary Herald"
Weaving concrete advice from her own life with stories and ideas from many of her frugal friends - including Margaret Atwood who encouraged Harris to write this book - Thrifty offers encouraging, entertaining and eclectic ways to live a frugal life with style.-- "rabble"
