About

MakingbySaving.com is the brainchild of me, a teacher turned parent turned writer.

I often find that my most difficult task is also my most important task – making sure that I manage all of our family resources wisely so that everyone’s needs are met to the best of my ability. It’s this ongoing endeavor which lead me to the concept of “making by saving.”

I’m pleased to announce that my new book, The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Stretching Your Dollar, is now available for purchase via Amazon.com and at bookstores everywhere.

Thanks for visiting the site and I hope to “see” you here often.
