Household items you can do without

[number406]

- Microwave oven - I've never owned one.
- Hair dryer - Nature dries it just as well.
- Clothes dryer. - A huge electricity hawk!
- TV - We have youtube now. Watch your shows a bit later on youtube, just as good.

Did I forget anything?

An iron. 

An iron has never been part of this household :)

If you live in the city or in a country with good public transportation, you can also do without a car. Or have just 1 car for the whole family.

Ice cube maker. 

This seems to be popular nowadays.
I just use one of these old plastic trays that you put in the freezer for a few hours and I also put my drinks in the freezer for a few hours. Then they don't need ice cubes and they don't get watered down.

Toaster. I toast my bread in the oven while I have other food in there as well. That way I don't turn on my oven just to make toast.

I use old grocery bags instead of buying a shower hat.  When I leave for work in the morning, I turn the heat down to 62f.  (in winter).  I can't do anything about taxes, they just keep going up.  I like to sew and repair garments etc. on my sewing machine.  I wash all my dishes by hand.  I make ALL my own food, I bring 3 meals to work every day.  Unfortunately, I am starting to notice that all the stores, discount or retail have all the same super high prices.  :(.  I make most of my own cleaning products for example:  furniture polish.  One less thing to buy for me.  I simply combine a freshly squeezed lemon with olive oil.  Dust wood furniture first then put this on for polish.  You will be very happy!
