Cheapest way to get from 43 - 50

Besides farming for your own materials, of course.

Beef Stew: http://mooglebox.com/entries/beef-stew.php

That's the cheapest I know of. Not sure about the rest of the servers, but the meat for the stew on my server costs about 440 gil each. The rest of the ingredients can be purchased from NPCs. Altogether it would cost you 1814 gil to craft it once, which gives you two stews and 179,586 for a stack of materials. I recommend doing all the local leves at Ul'dah that you can because they give out a good amount of meat for the stew as a reward. a stack of the materials required Much cheaper from the Pineapple Juice somebody recommended I grind off of

There's lots of ways to make money while leveling CUL. Without even farming your own materials, or atleast not all. Just saying.

I think I bought all the mats for crown cakes and was still making some profit.

I should have replaced "cheapest" with "fastest", lol. I dumped some gil on the mats and managed to get from 43 to 50 in a few hours. This is with a few exp scrolls as well.

cheapest way: local leves. You score tons of xp and you get nice mats for later.
