In It for the Money is the second album by Supergrass, released in 1997. NME called it "more fun than watching a wombat in a washing machine" and named it the 10th best album of the year. In 1998, Q readers voted it the 68th greatest album of all time, while in 2000 the same magazine placed it at number 57 in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever. Its sound is more focused and ambitious than their debut, I Should Coco.
A special edition of the album was released in the US, with a bonus second CD featuring some rare tracks.
