Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Designed and illustrated throughout with a retro 40s/50s feel, this guide proves that looking and living glamorously needn't cost the earth. If you want to save money and the planet but aren't prepared to become a complete eco-maniac, then learn how to make nice meals on a budget, how to grow things, how to dress well without going into debt, how to holiday in new ways and make your own fun. Knight is the author of 4 previous books, and is a columnist for the "Sunday Times".

Publisher's description:

Feeling poor because of recession? Feeling like you'd quite like to tighten your belt, but aren't quite ready to embrace DIY macrame handbags? This book shows you how even a dedicated consumer and child of the more-is-more 1980s can mend her ways, embrace the New Thrift, and find her life improved in the process.
