Top 10 'New Frugal' Stocks

Frugal Stock #6: Amazon.com
Every nation must learn to exploit its waterways if it wants to flourish. And in a Frugal Nation, perhaps the biggest and best waterway can be found in cyberspace. We're talking here about Amazon.com (AMZN), the "virtual river" that has become the vogue location to get whatever you need at the lowest price possible.
One of the things that make shopping at Amazon.com such a smart, frugal choice is the lack of state sales tax. With sales tax rates rising in the big states like California, careful shoppers are now realizing that Amazon.com offers them a much better value than making the trek to their local retailer. Amazon.com is the place for frugal shoppers to save, and it's a great stock to put on your Frugal Nation portfolio shopping list.
