Money saving sites:

Frugal Living (http://frugalliving.about.com/)

Welcome to Frugalvillage (http://www.frugalvillage.com/)

cut clutter | Organized Home (http://organizedhome.com/articles/cut-clutter)

Hillbilly Housewife (http://www.hillbillyhousewife.com/)

~~~~~~~~~~~

And as for books, I always try my library first. I liked the TWG, but most of her suggestions were a bit to tight for me, esp when she was talking about food. So I was glad I just got it from the library and didn't spend money on it. ;)

Other great ones that you will hear about a lot here are:

Simple Living Guide by Janet Luhrs

and one other that is scaping me at the moment.... :lol:

i love TWG and the simple living guide mentioned above. i have a sub to the simple dollar (a blog) and to cindy's porch, both financial/frugal sites. i've also used hillbilly housewife to learn to make some simple things from scratch...and very cheaply.
