Solid gold!

These books are filled up to the edge with clever ideas, good concepts and just TONS of things that you need to have somebody tell you. Simple little tricks that will save SO much blood, sweat and tears. But like real gold, you'll have to dig a bit, to find the great bits.

Tons of useful information

These books are chocked full of useful info. True they are not put together like a text book. It's more of a scrap book of articles and ideas. There is a table of contents which list all the articles, as well as an alphabetical index in the back with page numbers. Bottom line, these are great to have around.

entertaining & informative

Like one of the other reviewers wrote, they present like a scrap book and i think that was a great way to do these sort of books, very clever. What's wrong with a bit of repetition? My wife has to repeat an order at least 3 times,they gave me pause for thought. cheers

Worth the money but could use some revisions

I found these books to be informative and the tips in the books will definitely save you money and give you valuable information. The only beef I have with the books is that are not well organized and there is some repitition. They are not layed out like a book (ie, table of contents, etc ) but more like a scrap book of all the Trade secret tips from years gone by. Again, worth the money but could be improved.
