A couple bought a "tatty" static caravan from a scrapyard for £6,000 to live rent-free - and now save 90 per cent of their wages every month.
Rudi Smith, 27, and his partner, Lauren Smith, 28, found themselves struggling with rent for their £750-a-month home in Leeds - despite both working full time.
They decided to look for an alternative and decided to buy a 25m by 100m plot of land for £8,000 and a second-hand caravan for £6,000.
The pair spent around £2,000 ripping out and renovating the caravan but now live mortgage and rent free - spending less than £100-a-month on bills.
