&lt;p&gt;Good question!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I make a loaf of bread (hot dog buns, etc) the cost is less than $1.07. &amp;nbsp;The best part is that I know all the ingredients and no addatives are in there. This cost reflects all organic or chemical free freshly milled grain, sea salt, organic cane crystals or honey, organic olive oil and yeast. &amp;nbsp;That&amp;#39;s about all there is to it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why pay .99 cents for white elmer&amp;#39;s glue buns when for a few pennies more we can eat what our body will recognize and have all the fiber!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best Blessings!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Donna&lt;/p&gt;

I have always head it was expensive to make home made bread. Also can you freeze the bread. at time i will freeze the bread I buy at the store If i am not using it fast.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://community.stretcher.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=151436" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>Twitter Trackbacks for                 Time spent repairing vs. buying new and a third option. - The Homestead Mindset Anywhere: by Donna Miller         [stretcher.com]        on Topsy.com</title><link>http://community.stretcher.com/blogs/homesteadmindset/archive/2009/10/14/time-spent-repairing-vs-buying-new-and-a-third-option.aspx#148962</link><pubDate>Thu, 15 Oct 2009 23:42:48 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">fda86a45-d6cb-4af5-9188-2e89367e0f5e:148962</guid><dc:creator>Twitter Trackbacks for                 Time spent repairing vs. buying new and a third option. - The Homestead Mindset Anywhere: by Donna Miller         [stretcher.com]        on Topsy.com</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Pingback from &amp;nbsp;Twitter Trackbacks for &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Time spent repairing vs. buying new and a third option. - The Homestead Mindset Anywhere: by Donna Miller &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; [stretcher.com] &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;on Topsy.com&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When the funds pile up for getting a new fridge, I&amp;#39;ll be going w/ what gives a tax break! Thanks!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For now, not sure it&amp;#39;s working overtime as much as it&amp;#39;s having to work darkly....(o:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Great link and info! Thanks for sharing it - and will keep it all in mind for the future windfall of cash I keep praying for...(o:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best Blessings!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Donna&lt;/p&gt;

When we replaced the heater and ac, heating bill dropped drastically. last winter our highest heat bill was 142 and while we still wear long sleeves in winter indoors, we&amp;#39;re actually comfortable. yay. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but.. what I wanted to say was I really love reading your posts, Donna. It&amp;#39;s so logical and yet I&amp;#39;ve always overlooked doing that. Makes perfect sense to see what&amp;#39;s in there and plan the next week&amp;#39;s meals around that. duh! I usually always over-buy carrots. so I&amp;#39;m going to start planning how to use those instead of waiting till they&amp;#39;re so limp they&amp;#39;re only good for the soup pot. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Using what&amp;#39;s left in there plus the sale flyers.. lotta savings. Thanks!&lt;/p&gt;
