How to Live Better on Your Income depends on how you spend it, what demands are made- and what selling pressures you resist, and this manual tells you what to look for, and look out for. Shopping for food (packaging, double price tags, trading stamps, etc.) or for medicines, vitamins, appliances, records, cameras, toys; buying a house and the many considerations; a car- and its financing, insurance, auto supplies; planning for and meeting an education; charge accounts and loans; and factors which should govern your choice of appliance repairmen, lawyers, doctors, insurance brokers, etc. are all part of the general guidance offered. Consumer research in book form prepares its public for sounder spending habits based on a little foreknowledge.
