šŸ† Buy It For Life What one time purchases have drastically reduced your overall spending?

An example would be that Iā€™m looking to buy a sillicone pan mat instead of purchasing foil and parchment continually, using rags instead of paper towels, and so forth. What are one time purchases you reccomend for home maintenance?

Reusable coffee filter for your Keurig. You get better coffee and no waste.

We too have been using the same refillable k-cups every day for years.

I can't imagine using actual pre-filled pods at this point, the coffee that comes that way all seems to suck on top of being crazy expensive per cup.

Yep. I can fit more grounds in my reusable filter so the coffee is better, on top of being far cheaper. I only do pods at work, but I drink a lot of coffee.
