Need foil.or are there ways to stop your food sticking to your trays in the oven?

Need foil but its a tight week and it will set me back £2 and I really dont want to raid my DS piggys bank if I can help it.

My baking trays are very old and the non stick trays are no longer NON stick. I normally have foil and use that but used it all at the weekend.

Any ideas? I have some sunflower oil in the cupboard would that work?

    Greaseproof is for wrapping your sarnies, and is often not non-stick :)

    Foil doesnt stop food sticking anyhow - it just saves on washing up!

    Bit of oil if you think it'll stick - should do the trick. though a lot of foods have some oil in them anyway so dont need it. All depends on what you're cooking really.

    Sorry forgot to add brush it with oil.
    And don't forget to use the foil again if it is in good condition.

    A little oil tipped onto a piece of kitchen roll and wiped over your tins should do the trick, and if it's baking you're doing a little marge/butter on a piece of kitchen roll and then wiped over your tin will work too :)
