There's a lot of foods you can eat without having to cook them, or that you can cook with just a single electric burner. You can buy a mini dorm fridge + small microwave if you really need one, but simply buying whatever is on sale like meat that is about to expire or very ripe fruit is a good way to still save money without needing a lot of space. Washer and dryer uses a lot of electricity and water, so while it is more expensive to go to the laundrymat it's not as much as you might think, especially vs the savings of living in a very small space. Wearing your clothes more than once helps a lot, and even in a small space you can usually find somewhere to hang suits. Usually the back of a door is good. There's a lot of people out there that make it work. :)
