Ratings and reviews

This book is sooooooooooooooooooo not worth it. The book is her web site. So save the money and go to her websiste. Better yet skip her advice and learn from many of the other woman on the web who know how to budget and get by on less. One I found was The Prudent Homemaker now she knows how to stretch a dollar and make something great out of nothing. Many of the older ladies know a lot more than Crystal. Plus the Mom's who have raised 6 or more on one low income have tales to tell about how to stretch a dollar. This young girl who has been given everything in life , really does not know how to stretch a dollar.
