Jeff Yeager, aka “The Ultimate Cheapskate,” has written two books about tightwaddery. This week you can enter to win both.
“The Ultimate Cheapskate’s Road Map to True Riches” and “The Cheapskate Next Door” showcase Yeager’s creative tightwaddery. Hint: He promoted the second book by riding his bike around the country.
(Seriously. He logged 3,000 miles.)

I love to read these books to help me weed out ideas and activities that don’t work for me (i.e., are making me looney).
Thanks!
