Summary: No new information
Comment: I checked this book out at the library and was glad I did so, rather than purchasing it. I already do everything in the book, so there was nothing new for me to learn. I was somewhat disappointed.

I will say that it is a decent reference for those who are just starting out. If you have a bit of time though, you can find a lot of this stuff just browsing the internet.

Summary: Expected more
Comment: I was so excited to get this book--only to be disappointed. Most everything in the book I either already knew, or was REALLY common sense. This mom wishes she would have got it from the library. I could've saved money on the internet that way! ha ha

Summary: Nothing new and/or exciting.........
Comment: Good reference for someone just starting out.......but is not a definite "must have." You can spend very little time on the internet to find the same and MUCH MORE information for free. I was very disappointed to learn I had already signed up for the same sites mentioned in the book and have been a member for at least 5-6 years on those sites.

Summary: Good on saving resources, not so much on earning
Comment: I have been making money online since 1998 and am always checking out resources to help me make more. The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet offers some terrific savings ideas and resources in one place. It's especially helpful for busy moms who don't have time to research and investigate resources themselves.

I was very intersted in the earning aspect especially since it covered surveys and mystery shopping. I still don't feel this is a great way to earn income from home. I have tested many survey sites and have yet to get paid by the legitimate ones. Turns out I don't qualify for most surveys I'm sent. (I'm a 40 year old mom of two, married who owns a home...). I've gotten a free lunch with mystery shopping, but that won't pay the mortgage.

If you are looking for great resources and ideas to save money using the Internet, this is a good resource. But if you want to make money, this isn't your book.

Summary: The Mom's Guide to Earning and Saving Thousands on the Internet
Comment: This book is a great resource for oodles of websites for almost everything. Over the last few years I have spent a lot of time on the internet and already am aware of most of the content offered, but there was lots of stuff that was new to me as well. I was hoping for a little more on the earning 'thousands'aspect, but I think that is in part due to limitations on what is available on the internet. Of course, it also depends on how much time you are willing to spend doing these things. Overall, I thought this was a great comprehensive guide to anyone who uses the internet, not just moms.
