Annotation: In "Save Big (Not Small)," Good Morning America Consumer Correspondent Elisabeth Leamy puts saving into perspective. Her philosophy is to save a lot of money on a few things rather than merely saving a little on a bunch of small things. From paying off credit card debt to buying a car, "Save Big" teaches readers the keys to saving money on the challenges consumers must tackle. Elisabeth Leamy educates consumers on how to save thousands of the five things we spend the most money on: Houses Cars Credit Groceries Healthcare.

Most personal finance books don't see it Elisabeth's way. They all seem to list a litany of itty bitty savings ideas on the premise that "every bit counts." Pack your lunch, save $7. Use your own bank's ATM, save $3. Adjust your thermostat, save $20. And the all-time favorite target: skip the morning latte, save $4. Leamy's revolutionary advice is to go for it! Have the latte! The key to truly saving is "saving big."
