Jane Macdougall

Jane Macdougall has had a long and varied career in the media that includes everything from morning drive radio to commercials; episodic TV to weathercasting. Jane writes for several publications - including Zoomer Magazine - and is a regular columnist for the National Post, but her great love is the subject of thrift.

According to Jane, thrift will save the world. That's because thrift is all about creative, practical solutions. These solutions are a lot more fun than adhering to the prevailing mandate of false prosperity and consumption obesity that is beggaring individuals, nations and the planet. The antidote to this plague is resourcefulness … something dear to the heart of most Zoomers. Jane is an unlikely proponent of thrift – hers has been a life of privilege – but, in Jane's books, thrift and prosperity go hand-in-hand. Jane Macdougall's fresh take on thrift will inspire you to use your brain, not your wallet.
