Lower the temperature on your hot water heater from 145 degrees, which used to be standard, to 120 degrees. Cunningham swears you won't notice a difference at all, but you will see savings when you get your next bill, by as much as $36 to $61 each year.
Another easy money saver? Wash your clothes in cold water and you'll save about $40 in the fuel that it takes to heat up the water you'd typically wash with. You can save another $34 each year just by cleaning out your dryer's lint trap, which increases the efficiency.

Hmmm...I don't know about that water heater business..maybe I'll give it a try. But the clothes? We need the hot water to wash those stains out.
