Stock up on coffee filters to use in a variety of ways
It’s time to stock up on coffee filters since you can always buy so many in a package. And, there are 14 different uses for them. Here are some of those ways:
• Cover bowls or dishes when cooking in the microwave.
• Clean windows and mirrors. Coffee filters are lint-free so windows will sparkle.
• If you break the cork when opening a bottle of wine, use a filter filter out the broken cork pieces.
• Line a plant pot with a coffee filter to prevent soil from leaking out of the drainage holes.

This tip may not sound appetizing but I think it might be worth a try. You can drink recycled coffee by reusing your coffee grounds. Just add about 1/2 teaspoon of fresh grounds in the with used to brew another fresh cup. I just may try this myself when I get low on coffee grounds.
