Removing any and all monthly subscriptions is also a huge monetary saving - as is being able to convert hardware that was abandoned by some cloudy company. If you're techy, you can buy cheap used stuff from ebay and flash it with open source software.
Plus, I know that if I invest my $15 in a widget flashed with open source software, I know I probably won't have to save up another $15 in two years.
