Free Jiffy Mix recipe book.

You know Jiffy baking mixes, right? Those little pint-size white-and-blue boxes that sidle up shyly next to the Betty Crocker and Pillsbury cake-mix boxes that cost three times as much? I like Jiffy mixes because they cost about $0.50 each, and the smaller box makes a more reasonably sized batch for one or two people (6-8 muffins, rather than, you know, two dozen).

Anyway, you can send away for a free recipe book chock-full of new ideas for the world's cheapest muffin mixes. Jelly rolls, sausage wraps, broccoli cornbread, Hawaiian cream cake, chili cheese bread... the list goes on and on.

You can get them for free online too, but I'm guessing the physical book has some cute old-timey graphics and retro fonts that make baking more fun. Plus, it has camping recipes, the hobo chef's friend.
