depends on if you are including the whole cost of water, soap, and diapers in the cost of comparing to coffee filters. I can get a pack of about 200 for less than $2 and it will last close to a year. There is no way that water and detergent will cost that little. So unless you are drinking 3 pots a day it is cheaper to buy the filters. Even if I buy two packs for under $4 I still think that is a better savings.
