Welcome To Real Sophisticated Consumer
What is the real sophisticated consumer blog?
Whereas I once was suddenly frugal, these days I focus on writing about products and services that provide the most value for your time and money–and mine. I want you to be a smart shopper and sophisticated consumer.
