Low Cost Living

Low Cost Living Book

If you are into frugal cooking, then you're probably into frugal living generally. Our book, Low Cost Living, is about practical ways to live a better, greener life for less money. You can be pretty self-sufficient without spending a fortune to get there.

This isn't a book for dreamers - it's practical advice from ordinary people living life in an ordinary house. We dream of 5 acres in the country but in the meantime we live well in a suburban semi.  We bake our own bread, make our own butter, eat our own eggs  and grow our own food.

In this book, we show you how to do all these things. The chapter list shows all we cover:

  • Low Cost Eating
  • Beating the Supermarkets at Their Own Game
  • Cooking Your Food
  • Food Waste
  • Storing Vegetables (how to store your harvest)
  • Storing & Preserving Food
  • Making Your Own Chutneys and Jams
  • Baking Your Own Bread
  • Making Your Own Butter, Cheese & Yoghurt
  • Making Your Own Wine, Beer & Cider
  • Food for Free
  • Grow Your Own
  • Keeping Chickens
  • Bees in the Back Garden
  • Pets (Save money and have a happier pet)
  • Cleaning
  • Energy (includes solar, wind and heat pumps)
  • Water (Save & Store where it makes sense)
  • Transport
  • Recycling
  • Skills
  • Money (Turn a hobby into a mini-business)
  • Index
