Zusatztext "[Di Vincenzo] consults experts! from Best Buy to a local veterinarian! to get opinions on timing for topics on purchasing that people really care about . . . [A] wealth of data." Informationen zum Autor As a journalist with nearly a quarter century of experience, Mark Di Vincenzo made a name for himself as a reporter who exposed abuses and as a writer who made the complicated seem simple. He won numerous awards before becoming an editor. During the summer of 2007, he left daily journalism to pursue book projects and to start Business Writers Group, a writing and public relations company. In 2009, Harper-Collins published his first book, Buy Ketchup in May and Fly At Noon: A Guide to the Best Time to Buy This, Do That and Go There , a New York Times bestseller. Born and reared in Cleveland, he lives in the shipyard town of Newport News, Virginia—two blocks from William Styron’s childhood home—with his wife and two daughters. A third daughter attends the University of Oklahoma.

Covering an even wider range of topics than before-including beauty tips, pets, cars, and children-this book is an absolute must for readers of Schott's Miscellany and other collections of useful information, and for multi-taskers searching for better, healthier, thriftier ways to do things.
