Meet the Tucson Cheapskates:
Christy Campbell is originally from a small beach town in New Jersey and came to Tucson three years ago
to attend the University of Arizona and study English Literature. She quickly fell in love with all Tucson has to offer, but decided to study abroad in London for the spring semester of 2009. Living in both places, each a world apart from Tucson, she was amazed to the differences in the cost of living and availability of bargains. She enjoys researching deals and is happy to share what she thinks are the best offers around. She heard about Tucson on the Cheap through her school and is thrilled to combine two of her loves, writing and bargain-hunting, into one avenue.
