    Used $25 breadmaker from a local thrift store. Now I bake fresh wheat bread that requires practically no time at all, costs a fraction of what the loaves at the store cost, and taste great too.

      +1 to bread maker!
      $25 from marketplace and now in 3 hours I can always have fresh baked bread, throw in some rosemary and garlic and scallion in an olive oil loaf and you have a nice dish to bring to a dinner.
      Use the dough setting and now I have easy bagels and pretzels. Or even challah bread.

      I even got a 50lb bag of flour for $14 so each loaf of bread costs about 40¢ in ingredients.

      The real move is to use the bread maker on the dough setting and then bake in a loaf pan to avoid the carb cube shaped loaf.

        Too much extra effort and cleanup. And the carb cube makes good sandwich slices.
