Default Ping: All the 'cookbook collectors' on r.f.c.

I have a question for the 'cookbook collectors' here (or any other
interested r.f.c.-ers)...

Do you buy the 'in store and/or promotional mini-cookbooks' that are
sometimes available at your local stupidmarkets (whose
authors/compilers you've often never heard of before)?

I ask because I found several on display near the check-outs at one of
our local stupidmarkets today. They were only ZAR25.00 (US$2.50)
each... So, I bought two. One is called "Budget Beaters" <Cathy waves
to ChrisD> which does indeed have some tasty looking 'budget' recipes
in it - and the other is "Delicious Cookies"; I bought that one because
our kidlette has recently discovered how to make (very basic) cookies,
and I thought she might like to try some of the (slightly more
complicated) recipes in there.

BTW, they were both compiled by a local magazine food editor by the name
of Carmen Niehaus - whom I had never heard of before today ;-).
