I have 3 freezers full of food, enough tins of fruit, beans and veg to live on for months plus all the dried food in the cupboard. I only drink herb tea, of which I have plenty and can supplement with homegrown through the year.
Most days, my food costs less than £1, usually its FREE.I'm hoping that the garden will be more productive this year as last year was abysmal. I'll be concentrating my efforts on quick and easy crops, not the slow to mature veg that hog the ground for months.
I won't need to buy any laundry products (having acquired the laundry eggs), no household cleaning stuff (I get through this very slowly). I have a pile of soap and shower gel and other toiletries.
Haven't bought any new clothes in 3 years and doubt that I'll start this year.
All my "new" books have been second hand.
According to my garden balance sheet, I'm in credit, having grown crops worth more than what I've spent on the garden.
Its looking good.
