Cheap: The High Cost of Discount Culture by Ellen Ruppel Shell

4.0

This is a must-read for every American. It gives history and insight into our current consumer/economic trends and encourages us to change our course. I will never again buy a product or walk into a store without thinking of this book. My only difficulty with this book is that she gave more criticism than solution . . . I would like to know how I can help improve my consumer choices and vote with my wallet. The author gave very few suggestions. After all, not all of us live near a Wegman's.
