Does anyone have this?

I found a copy in my local RSPCA charity shop.

Looks like printed in 1969, its older than me!!!

Going to have a read through it tonight and see what its like.

I don't have it, but it sounds an interesting book - great bargain for you too! :T

Do let us know how good it is

I don't have these particular ones but I did pick up the Family Circle Money Saving Recipes for 10p at the beginning of the year. Have found some of the recipes fab so far...tried curried sausages at the weekend. Also Piquant fish fingers and Potomac pie have become firm favourites in our household.

When I was first married in 1970 Family Circle was the one magazine with loads of easy, cheap recipes - I used to try lotrs and cut several out that have become faviourites over the years! Does your book include something called "Tasty lamb bake"? That wa one DH really like and I lost it....so if you have it...please??????

I think I had this from Oxfam. Does it have recipes for batch baking where you make a big batch of cake mix or scones and then make several things with them ? If so, that's the one. Can't remember why I got rid of it - wish I hadn't now :rolleyes:

Hi all,

Sorry I didn't realise there had been a couple more posts since I posted last.

The book is a great one, does have the batch baking section, will have to look for the lamb bake though. Will let you know if it has

Even though i really like it, space is very limited for me at the moment and i have books coming out of my ears.

I am dabbling in ebay selling at the moment so i have list it. Didn't sell last week so giving it another go this week.
