Yes yes - I'm used to do the counts like that.

Usually (and I'm talking specifically of myself, living with my girlfriend) 12k €/year are needed to provide for basic necessities, being cheap but not to the detriment of the overall quality. Means not buying the branded products but also not buying the lowest quality, trying many products to understand which have a good quality/price ratio, buying raw materials and processing them (chicken chest cost way less if bought whole and then cut at home), keeping an average temperature in house, making good use of any discount, using the washing machine in the week-end (electricity costs less in the evening and week-ends) and so on. Small tips that added all together save money.
