For cheap living, lawn furniture is also an option. As are home-made desks/tables.
Cinder blocks, milk crates, and plywood are very versatile.
Yeah, for my desk I'll probably do something like that. As for couch options, sorry about saying couch when I'm actually meaning a love seat. The living room of the house I live is too small for a big couch. As for the other options the only thing I can get here are bean bags and who at the age of 30 has bean bags in the living room? lol I looked at recliners but they are just as expensive as the love seats I'm looking at and they only fit one person.

My friends, who are 28 and 29, have a bean bag in the living room in addition to their couch. The bag can seat 3 comfortably, but can fit 6 or more. We affectionately call it "the nest".
Sumo bean bags are more expensive than cheap ones. They are $150 US for each one, and you'll probably need two or three. Even so, that's still less than the price of a couch over here. Also, they are super comfortable, and way classier and more durable than normal shitty bean bags.
Okay, I guess the type of hippie bean bags they sell here are different. They are in a weird shape and only fit one person. Also they don't get delivered to the stupid city I live in, I would have to go to a hippie fair to get one, and bring it over by car. I don't think it's worth it. I'm thinking of taking a picture of my living room, but it will turn this into a couch and talk trash about my house thread. lol
But in all honesty, I've heard nothing but good things about them, they're generally tough as iron nails, and I find them ludicrously comfortable, for a beanbag. IF you are looking to get a beanbag, then either go Sumo, or steal their design, and get one made by one of the numerous tailor and alteration shops in new york. Pro-tip, use a really strong zip.
That's true, but they gotta get it from somewhere, and it can't be that hard to find. The question is if you can get it in a small enough amount.
Sumo actually sells the filling for refilling purposes, but it would cost you a hell of a lot to buy enough filling refills to make an entire Sumo. You're better off buying a Sumo and taking the filling out... wait a minute.

It's just Virgin Polystyrene beads, Albeit high density ones. You could try Royal Mix, which is shredded foam mixed with virgin poly beads, or you could try to pick up your own virgin poly beads in larger lots. Can't tell you about prices, because I don't know, but it's well possible.

20 oz. for $20 on Amazon for 100% polystyrene beads.
Sumo is selling 3 cubic feet of polystyrene foam beads, not the same thing, for $50.

I know sumo sell beads. I know the difference between Sumo's high density Virgin poly beads, regular poly beads, recycled foam and Royal Mix, and about a half dozen other kinds.
Seriously, I'm just throwing shit at the wall here, and seeing what sticks - I could get away with buying a huge amount of beads, and making about four or five huge beanbags, keeping one or two, and then selling the rest, I have the facilities and storage for it, but you don't, so I'm just giving options in case you decide to take that route, and you can't complain you didn't know two months down the line.
My recommendation is to buy Sumo, for you - easier, no worries about making the bags or storage for extra raw materiel, no tailoring fees, and guaranteed quality, nor do you have the problem of that when you're off work, you'd be spending time better spent doing other things on just fart-arsing around making a beanbag chair when you could have bought one.

These groups are not mutually exclusive. ~_^

It is possibly one of the most useful things I've ever learned. Jesus christ, I'm such a goddamn info-nerd.
