 | Shop, Save, Share by Ellie Kay
According to the Food Economic Review, a family of seven can easily spend nearly $1,000 a month on food. Author Ellie Kay spends only $200 a month for the same number of people, plus diapers, toiletries, and cleansers -- and in one year donated over $1,000 worth of groceries to needy families! Using the easy-to-apply principles of this book, most households can lower their food budgets by 50 to 85 under national norms. And while secular books on smart shopping promote savings, Shop, Save, Share emphasizes the Christian's unique calling to stewardship and giving to others -- a wonderful expression of John Wesley's maxim on godly wealth: Gain all you can, save all you can give all you can .
