Few years back I saved the dryer lint over a year and compressed it and gave it to a sister as starter logs to use at her cottage.
If you're feeling extra frugal: save the last bit of wax from your candles, stuff the dryer lint into the pockets of an empty paper egg carton, melt the wax down, and then pour that over the lint. Once it cools you have a dozen fire starters that will happily burn for like 5 minutes each.
