Just a little off the usual topic of
coupons, but in my paper there was an article on how to
save money by saving
water use in the home.
Since this blog is mostly about
saving money, I find that I am going to take these hints and use them.
We waste a lot of
water, especially in the bathroom where about two-thirds of a home's
water use goes down the drain. So let's start there.
1. The toilet-use the low volume ones or put a plastic bottle filled with
water in the tank to reduce the amount of
water used.
2. Brushing your teeth, shaving or washing your face-turn off the
water.3. Showers-cut down to 5 minutes.
4. Drastic showers-Navy style get wet, turn off
water, later and scrub then turn it on and rinse.
5. Shower head-trade high-flow for a low-flow.
6. Shower-waiting for the
water to get warm, place a bucket to collect the
water and use it for houseplants, etc.
This is a start. I'll list more of the
water saving
money saving 50 hints in the future.
