WHAT'S COOKING?

Bargain Cookbooks!

🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽

Cookbooks are my new addiction.

I've become a bit obsessed with them.

Sadly, my purse doesn't often allow me to purchase them. I find many for free for my Kindle, and that's great. But what about those precious print books? I find them at such places like Dollar General, The Dollar Tree, even Barnes & Noble on the bargain and clearance tables. Just last week I found several at a library book sale that look brand new!

Of course, you can also find them online.

My favorite online place to shop for cookbooks is

The Book Outlet!

bookoutlet.com

(I'm not an affiliate of the Book Outlet. I just love the place!)

Take a look at just some of the

cookbooks you can find!
