What have you changed about your lifestyle to deal with the cost of living increases? - eviltoast

I was having this conversation with a friend and we both got some useful ideas from each other (cancelling various underused subscription services, making use of libraries, more home vege gardening etc) - curious to know what else people are trying.

    Don’t know how big your garden is, but I’ve always found for a small garden like ours broccoli/cauliflower isn’t worth it for the amount of space they take up. You only ever get 1 or 2 harvests as well.

    I agree with you’re take though. I also don’t grow things like carrots, potatoes etc. as they’re almost always cheap

      Our garden is on the small side. 1m wide, maybe 6m long. Built into a retaining wall. So yeah, not many broccoli fit.
