"Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants." Epictetus
Today I was thinking about ways we currently save money and thought I would share a few with you!

Coffee: use regular coffee grounds in these refillable coffee filters for the Keurig--way cheaper than buying K-Cups every week.
Water Filter: the water is kind of rough here, but instead of buying bottled water, we filter. And we pretty much stick to only drinking water (and coffee, of course).
Slow Cooker: throwing stuff in the crock pot before work saves time, energy and smells delicious when I walk in the door after work.
One Pot Meals: only have to use one burner, saves on water washing dishes .
Laundry: save quarters and only wash, then air dry the laundry (makes the apartment smell like clean laundry!).
Lights: only keep lights on in the room we are occupying; every penny saved on that electric bill counts!
General Repurposing and Reusing: if I need something (like a desktop organizer), I first look around at home to see if I have anything that can be recycled into what I need before buying.
What are some ways you save money around your home? I would love to hear your tips and tricks!
