Tips 16 and 17

Day 16 and 17 of "365 Ways to Live Cheap".

16. Use Cold Water for Most Clothes Washing. Using cold water for most of your clothes washing does save on average $63 per year. I do use mostly cold water, but for really dirty clothes I still use the warm water option with the cold water rinse.


17. Clean out your dryer lint. Cleaning the lint trap after every use. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean out the lint trap slot and clean the dryers exhaust pipes. This will help your dryer run more efficient and keep it running longer. We do this at least in the spring and late fall. We use an indoor dryer vent humidifier in the winter time to help heat and humidify the air. It is very similar to the one I found on Amazon.
