Very expensively

Hi

Does the use of the phrase "very expensively" seem natural here?

A- How do you manage a white wardrobe?
B- Very expensively; a little dot and the cleaning bills are huge.

Thanks,

Tom

Mr. B- Very expensively; a little dot and the cleaning bills are huge. I get it, and it is quite humorous, though the grammar may not stand up to close scrutiny.
