Clothes dryers usually keep running well past what is needed. Mine has a sensor that shuts off when the clothes are dry. I usually set it at "Less Dry" and everything is perfect.
You would be amazed how much you can save by adjusting the thermostat just a few degrees for the heat pump.

You really only save money on your dishwasher. And you reduce the amount of stored energy, so from a bath/shower perspective you have less 'hot water' available.
I'm very cheap, but I do not turn my water temp down. House temp? Yes. Water? Not for me.
