If you store your homemade bread in a gallon ziplock bag, it will last a couple of days and be fine. Any more and it probably will mold depending on how hot the weather is. I also brush the hot loaf top with butter. YUM! It keeps it nice. If your loaf is only a lb. or less, you probably will eat it up in a couple of days and besides, that's when it is good. Any left after a couple of days I use to make bread pudding.
As far as the cost to make it, I really haven't figured that out. I am thinking that it really doesn't cost any more than some store bought bread depending on the kind you buy. I will have to do some figuring.
I've done the refrigerator thing and it dries out the bread. Just my experience.
