Thrift is desirable, necessary and fashionable. So says India Knight in her guide to economical modern living 'The Thrift Book: Live Well and Spend Less.' A child of the 80's, she loves consumption and yet she started finding herself irritated at the amount of plastic used in supermarket packaging. Little by little, she became greener and started doing her bit. If you're interested in living well, in saving money in these troubled financial times and in feeling like a useful member of the human race, this is the book for you. Only don't buy it. Borrow it from the library.
