Unfortunately the weekend is over now and thus a new week begins. Ah, yes, I can hear all of the moans and groans from everyone, including myself! Monday starts a new week for a lot of us, which means that it is time to start another day at work or start the even harder work at home for those of you homemakers out there.

Today’s tip is aimed at people who do their own laundry (yes, there are people who actually do pay someone else to do this for them). How many people actually empty their lint filter in their dryer? That many, huh? It’s true, even I have occasionally forgotten to clean out my dryer’s lint filter. However, there is good news for all of you lint filter cleaning obsessed people out there! If you really want to save a little on your energy bill and quit making this energy work hard for you simply clean out your dryer’s lint filter. Trust me, the environment will thank you in the long run!

By cleaning out your dryer’s lint filter you are also making it possible for your dryer to dry your clothes much more quickly. If you really want to save even more energy than you would be by cleaning out your dryer’s lint filter you can hang your clothes outside on a clothesline or something similar. Not only will you be saving a lot of energy but your clothes will also smell nice and fresh by being hung up outside.
