Customer Reviews
Waste of money
The tips range from the ridiculous to the downright patronising. Nine quid to be told to write on the backs of envelopes or to light my log burner with toilet roll holders and tumble dryer fluff (it doesn’t work and smells repulsive).
The recipes are no better. To cook a chicken, the author tells us to follow the instructions on the packaging. Seriously? That’s a recipe?
I have no idea how this book ever got published. It feels like a cynical attempt to jump on the thrift bandwagon.
