I’m so excited!

The Amazon order page for The Money Saving Mom®’s Budget got updated over Christmas and now you can click on the graphic to see some of the inside pages of my book. I love how the final layout turned out and my hat is off to the team of folks at Simon & Schuster who worked tirelessly to make the finished product one I was really happy with.

You can read the introduction, read sections from the first chapter, see all of the fantastic worksheets that are at the back of the book, read the acknowledgments (one of my favorite parts of a book–yes, I’m weird!), and see the back cover. It’s the next best thing to having a real copy in your hands!

So what are you waiting for? Click over and check it out!

    My hubby got me your book for a Christmas/birthday present! (My birthday is on Christmas). Can’t wait!

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 11:38 am

      What a sweet guy! I’d love to pop a personalized bookplate in the mail to you, if you didn’t already get one. Email me your address, if you’re interested: moneysavingmom @ gmail.com

      Happy Birthday!

      • RuthS December 27, 2011 at 11:41 am

        Yay, I will, thanks!

  • Victoria December 27, 2011 at 11:48 am

    I preordered the book on my Kindle. Now I’m waiting (not so patiently) for the release! LoL :)

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 11:48 am

      Thank you so much for your support, Victoria!

  • Laura December 27, 2011 at 11:51 am

    The acknowledgments are always my favorite part too, yours made me cry! Wow! Beautifully written! Thank you for using your talents to help so many people!

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 11:54 am

      Thanks so much, Laura. This book wouldn’t have happened without so many, many people who helped, prayed, and served as my resident cheerleaders! I owe so much to so many!

  • Amy Campbell December 27, 2011 at 12:05 pm

    Just bought your book, can’t wait to soak up your knowledge and start 2012 off in a great way!

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 12:08 pm

      Thanks so much for your support, Amy!

    I love that you got such a great supportive quote from Dave Ramsey as his “stamp of approval” will win you readers from outside the blogosphere and frugal living arenas. I hope this book sells millions since it will benefit such a worthy cause.

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 01:12 pm

      Thanks for your kind encouragement, Jennifer! I was so honored that Dave Ramsey was willing to endorse the book!

  • Kris December 27, 2011 at 01:44 pm

    Wow! The book looks great. I will definitely be getting this book. I loved the budgeting forms in the back. I’m struggling with whether I should order it as a Nook Book or paperback. Its only a 1$ difference, so that is not my issue, but rather will I need to make my own versions of your budgets or should I get the paperback version and just photocopy? Do you have some advice?

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 01:47 pm

      Unless you like creating your own budget forms, I think it’d save you time to just buy the paperback version and photocopy them to keep it simple.

      Thanks for your kind encouragement!

  • Chris December 27, 2011 at 02:19 pm

    Simon & Schuster has a speakers’ bureau? I have a feeling Crystal has some (more) travel coming in 2012 ;-) . Congratulations on the book.

  • Mrs. Mordecai December 27, 2011 at 03:27 pm

    I reviewed your book on my blog (http://be-it-ever-so-humble.blogspot.com/2011/12/money-saving-moms-budget.html) and on Goodreads.com.

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 06:18 pm

      Thank you so much! Just added you to the list of reviews I’ll be posting next week!

  • Jenny December 27, 2011 at 07:43 pm

    Congrats Crystal. It looks great.

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 07:45 pm

      Thanks so much, Jenny!

  • Erin December 27, 2011 at 08:04 pm

    Congrats Crystal! I can not wait to pick up your book! :)

    • Crystal December 27, 2011 at 08:10 pm

      Thank you so much, Erin!

  • Courtney December 27, 2011 at 10:03 pm

    I giggled inside when I saw the Mary Hunt recommendation on the back. Her Freedom Account goal is one that is currently on my 2012 list.

  • Kimberly December 29, 2011 at 01:21 pm

    I originally started reading your blog back when you had Biblical Womanhood, and then followed you on to Moneysavingmom! And now you have a book on the way! What an exciting time this must be for you and your family! I’m sure this is a dream come true for all of you. I know the book is way above your kids’ interest levels, but what do they think about Mommy writing a book? And when will you let us know what the special project is with Compassion? I believe you said you also have a passport now?!? Can’t wait to hear all about it!

    • Crystal December 29, 2011 at 02:38 pm

      Compassion info should be coming soon. I’m excited to share it with you all! :)

      And thanks for your kind encouragement–and for sticking around for all these years!
