I’m going to try to kill two birds with one stone. Being that it is National Preparedness Month I want to give away stuff. I’m also moving soon and need to get rid of some things. Win win for all of you. Up today is a copy of Steven Harris Sunshine To Dollars book. I love this book. It is packed with great info. So Why am I giving it away? Well years ago Steven sent me one for review. Later I won a contest and got another copy of Sunshine to dollars. Even though 2 is 1, 1 is none, I’m giving away the second copy. I’ll include my previous review on it.
Sunshine To Dollars
I first heard about Steven on The Survival Podcast and have been a fan of his work since then. I have a huge interest in science and can really geek out on his stuff. I had been meaning to pick up a copy of Sunshine to Dollars for so long. I’m ashamed now I waited so long to read it. I love how Steven jumps right into solutions. Literally page one of the book shows you the trick on getting FREE solar panels. Free happens to be my favorite price. While I’m not going to disclose how he got them, You will have to hope you win a copy of Sunshine to Dollars or go buy one. Makes me wish I had a truck to haul them away and a home to hook them up.
There are so many projects in Sunshine to Dollars you will surely find one to do. I can vouch his solar window heater detailed in the book. One one of his many TSP interviews he described it in detail. I followed that description and did not use heat in my apartment this past winter except when I had company over. I was comfortable with the temperature usually in the high 60′s. Here in Tennessee we had a fairly mild winter but had many days with freezing temperatures.If you interested I documented the experiment here.
As an extra the book also includes Steven “Surviving the Blackout of 2003″ which documents his personal adventure during a Michigan area blackout. This book could easily sale in its own. The tips and tricks given out are well worth it. Using your car as generator is pure genius. This section deals with how to prep for a grid down scenario and does it better than most sources I’ve read. I learned a few things on sanitation and dealing with human waste.
Want to win this great book? Easy I’ll run an old school contest. Comment on this post. Make sure your an email subscriber. Next Friday I’ll pick a winner. I’ll email you to get your shipping info. Please respond within 24 hours to claim your prize. Thats it! Enjoy.

Sign me up. I found out about Steven Harris through The Survival Podcast also. The shows he’s been on have been on have been some of my favorites on TSP.
Steven Harris rocks. Definitely one of my favorite guests on TSP. Incredible wealth of knowledge, and committed to sharing it with us in the preparedness community. Thanks for the contest.
This is good stuff. I learned about Steven Harris and Survival Punk from TSP. I’m glad I did. There is so much good information being put out. Thanks!
Steven Harris’ stuff is great. I did a very quick overview of his on my blog. Good info.
This is my first exposure to the author. From your review it sounds like awesome information, especially the information you describe regarding the solar panels. Any inexpensive solutions to help get more off the grid and DIY is always a great resource. Sure hope I win or I will have to go track down a copy.
Sounds like a good read. I am cheap, so saving money on anything like heating, etc is right up my alley!
Count me in for the give away! A friend of mine introduced me to Steven Harris’ work years ago, but I never heard him speak until his first appearance on TSP. Great, useful, diy-friendly ideas!
I also learned about Steven Harris and Survival Punk from TSP. Stevens battery back up video is pretty as well.
Radios1234.com is one of Steven Harris’ best sites.
Once I when web searching, I ran across a forum where the moderator really disrespected Mr Harris. It was a forum about solar panels and such. The question was about Mr Harris’s plan to use your car to power your house. I laughed at the ignorance and predjuice from that mod!
Steven Harris is new to me. I’ll have to look him up. Thanks.
THE BOOK LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING I WOULD LIKE TO READ.
Just signed up to receive your newsletter. The book definitely sounds like something I need to include in my preps. Thanks!
This sounds like something I’ve been needing to jump(kick) start me.
Stephen Harris is a wealth of information. I would love to read his book.
Thanks for the opportunity.
This book sounds as if it is something we all need to read. Thank you for the drawing.
I’m in. Sounds like a good read.
Hey everyone, Mike is needs a podcast/stage name. Any ideas???? Please send them to the Survival Punk (James) . I hear that there might be a prize for the sender if the name you suggest is chosen, the big prize is having suggested the chosen name. If no ideas, please vote when the suggestions are in and James puts them up for a vote. I don’t see anything on the site yet but it’s mentioned in the podcasts. Also please let them know what you think of the podcasts. Personally I enjoy them and find them informative and entertaining. If you haven’t listened please do. If you like them, please support them as well, join the SPA. If you don’t like the podcasts well, as George Carlin would say “Well FUCK YOU!!”. :)~
No, I’m not being paid to say this, just don’t want them to go off the air. Hey where’s the forum that I should be posting this in rather than here?
Harris is good and I try to keep up. Free is also my favorite!
I saw your article on Clarksville now website. I look forward to learning more.
