Living On A Shoe String
Loxton, SA, Australia - May - 2007 - Denise Garside’s first publication is intended to assist with financial management at the family level.
This book is an accumulation of tried and tested ideas and strategies aimed at simplifying the ever increasing task of managing your budget with limited financial resources. Much of the content is derived from the personal experience of the author and her extended family and friends.
Denise Garside created Living On A Shoe String and came to Lulu after extensively researching the publishing industry for the most efficient method of publishing. Denise Garside says, “Financially disadvantaged people need a resource that is easily accessible and within their financial reach. Lulu’s publication on demand allows me to cut out the middleman and keep costs to a minimum thus allowing me to meet this goal”.
