We've talked about using a tax refund to pay down debt and save for the future. If you're okay on those fronts, though, LearnVest recommends using it to make your home more energy-efficient—and save on future taxes.
For example, LearnVest notes that replacing your windows with Energy Star certified replacement windows can save you up to $465 a year in energy bills. Homeowners who want to move to solar energy systems or geothermal heat pumps will also get some nice tax credits. Even switching to LED light bulbs or a smart thermostat will save you on future bills. Check out the link below for more ideas on how to invest your refund wisely.
