I've been given some 50mm insulation sheets and wondered if I can add normal kitchen foil to them?

Jeez is money that tight? Just buy a roll of vapour barrier and use that if that's what you're trying to achieve.
 
The answer is yes....
PVA the foil and roll the foil on, any cheap foil will do.
Whether it performs any better is the question.... :)

In theory it should do (as long as there is an air gap) because the foil is a low-emissivity surface; products such as Kingspan gain some of their insulation value due to the foil facing.
