Holiday Gift Pick #4

Gift Idea #4: a used copy of Amy Dacyczyn's The Complete Tightwad Gazette

Well before the internet became a haven of frugality tips, Ms. Dacyczyn produced a newsletter that compiled every possible penny-pinching tip under the sun. Give a copy of this book to any young adults in your life who could use a few helpful suggestions on how to make their meager paychecks stretch a little further. (Maybe toss in a grocery store gift card, too.)

Note: If you're looking for a gift for a person with more rarefied taste, this is pretty great, too! I'd swap out the grocery store gift card with, like, a nice plant, though.
