Original Ideas for Using Coffee Filters

Here are some pretty original ideas for using coffee filters around the house to save money. This information has been circulating through emails and I do not know who wrote this originally but to who ever did, thank you.  When you begin using your new "one cup coffee maker" you will no longer need those coffee filters you have on hand for your old-fashioned coffee maker.  Why not put them to good use.

Coffee filters ..who knew! And you can buy 1,000 at the Dollar store for almost nothing.

1. Cover bowls or dishes when cooking in the microwave.

Coffee filters make excellent covers.
