Frugal Product Review - the Coffee Cone

Coffee ConeWhat is the smartest financial move I have made so far?  My coffee cone.  I just place it over my mug and throw in a filter and some coffee. Now I don’t have to feel bad about buying my favorite coffee - I just buy it by the pound instead of the cup.  

I drink on average 16 cups of coffee per week.  A pound of coffee costs $8.49 per pound and yields about 32 servings.  At close to $2 per cup in the coffee shop I save almost $75 per month.  What do I do with all the money I save?  It goes to a mutual fund that I recently opened at Charles Schwab. 

Right now I am looking for a giant cone so I can make 4 - 6 cups at a time.  What I should really do is cut down on the coffee but I don’t see that happening any time soon.  From what I hear, I’m a better person after drinking a cup of coffee.
