bread machine bread

Bradley eats 2 sandwiches a day.  Andrew and Scott usually have one.  Add to that the various other times we use bread and we go through A LOT of bread.  So the other day when I saw a good deal on a used bread maker, I bought it....but, I haven't yet been able to perfect my loaves.  I don't have photos of all my efforts, but I'll just say that I'm ready to give up.  I think the $2.00 loaves at the store are probably cheaper than the ingredients and power used to make a breadmaker loaf. 
 
First try, didn't rise.  Stale yeast, I guess.  The package was from 2012. 
Second try, flop, fell in, well, because it over flowed and caught on fire and Scott unplugged it in the middle of baking. 
Third loaf, didn't even get past the opening of the yeast package because there were bugs (lots of them) in the yeast. 
Fourth loaf, I cut the recipe in half so that it wouldn't rise over the top again....and I got a pretty good HALF loaf, haha!
