I have been going to a lot of stores that were reviewed in this guide, and the descriptions were accurate. Even with google, I would have had a hard time compiling this list of places to shop for myself. I keep in my glove compartment, so when I am visiting a different neighborhood in DC I have new places to shop. It has been really fun.

This is fun and fantastic resource. These girls love a good bargin, and they obviously have a knack for fact-checking. "Dirt Cheap Real Good" is full of helpful information -- and with a bevy of detailed directions to accompany the funny and personal anecdotes, it's the only road atlas you'll ever need.

I read this book assuming that, after 9 years living in the DC area, I would find summaries of my favorite haunts, and maybe scoff at outdated listings for a few that had closed. I did not expect, and was very happily surprised, to find mention of several newer shops, including a few nearby I didn't even know existed! The book was obviously very thoroughly researched, and I'm sure they had a blast writing it. (Now, if only I had thought of it!)
