Default Re: Money saving we do in our house!?!?

Wow, I never even thought of half this stuff! I didn't realize it could make such a difference. I wish I could get my husband to adopt the toilet flushing thing, but he would rather die. We are really good about turing off lights and stuff but here are the things I need to (and am going to) work on.

#1- When I do the dishes, do not keep the water on the whole time, and when it is on, NOT turing it on full blast. (I am horrible at both of these)

#2- Not turning the water so hot in the shower. This will save tremendously on the gas bill I think (and my husband from getting cold showers). I don't know if I can cut this cold turkey, so more realisticly I'll say that I will keep the temp down for the whole time, except the last 30 seconds so at least I get a spurt of hotness.

I know it's not a lot, but hey, at least I'm trying?
