If you are like me, you really love saving money. In fact, you are probably addicted to saving money. Over the years, I have come up with many amazing ways to save money around the house. Here are a few that anyone can implement and save lots of money.

The hot water heater is probably too hot. Change it to 110 to 120 degrees and you will still be fine.

Make sure you have a full load of laundries before you use the washer. That way, you are using the least amount of energy per cloth!

Whenever you aren’t using the water tap, turn it off to conserve water. You don’t need it for most of the time that you are showering anyway.

Actually, windows should be sealed off too. If you look at your windows and the plastic molding is peeling off, then replacing it will prevent heat from going out the window.

Take advantage of the energy peak hour programs that companies have. Whenever there’s peak power, they will just cut off your air conditioning or heater and they will give you a better rate.

Cut the landline if you don’t need it. Most cell phones are adequate these days and you don’t really need more than one line anyway.

Turn the temperature of the fridge up a little bit. You don’t need to create sub freezing temperatures with everything inside.

If there are rooms that you don’t go to often, seal off the vents to the room so heat and air conditioning isn’t wasted.

Clean and replace filters regularly because dirty ones will waste so much energy for your furnace and air conditioning unit. It even pays to have someone regular come check it out.

Wear clothes so you won’t feel cold. You don’t necessary need to crank up that heater to high all the time.
