How to Shop for Free: Shopping Secrets for Smart Women Who Love to Get Something for Nothing (9780738214566): Kathy Spencer, Samantha Rose: Books. Boston shopping maven Spencer sure knows her stuff�that is, how to take advantage of coupons, in-store sales, rewards clubs, and the like to reap bargains for nothing (or close to zero). With the help of writer Samantha Rose, the author takes us through a whirlwind of savings strategies and ideas, always executed on the up and up. To break up what could be pages upon pages of instructions, sidebars are liberally applied�hot tips (e.g., snag as many Sunday newspaper inserts as you can), work it (exercises to help you maximize budgets), shopper�s hall of fame (testimonials from the parsimonious), and so on. And resources at the end of each chapter provide website URLs. In essence, Spencer and Rose demystify the marketing lingo�like blinkies, tearpads, CATS�and demonstrate very practical methods to score deals. such as joining product-testing groups or flipping (switching) prescriptions at pharmacies to gain gift cards and further discounts. Yes, Virginia, there is a lot of preparation time and effort involved in shopping for free. On the other hand, Santa could visit more than once a year. --Barbara Jacobs
