Living Without Money: Tonight
Monday 05 January
8:00pm - 8:30pm
ITV1 London
To help us all survive the credit crunch, Jonathan Maitland accepts the ultimate money-saving challenge and tries to live in a town without any cash for food and accommodation. With advice from people who already live a frugal life, will he survive? And what can we learn from his experiment?
VIDEO Plus+: 7853
Subtitled, Widescreen
I'll definitely be watching this, let's hope he can teach us a thing or two! I wonder if they will cover 'freeganism'? (ie rummaging in bins? which BTW I would love to do should the opportunity come my way...)

Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!0 -
