Stopped Up

If you're someone who likes to soak in the tub to get clean, be sure to stopper the tub as soon as you turn on the water. Trust us - we want your bath to be warm, but you'll be able to heat up the initial cold water in time before you and your rubber ducky hop in for a swim. This way, you won't have perfectly good water rushing down the drain, only to be wasted. Your savings - both in terms of water and your water bill - will be remarkable. For extra points, do this when you shower, too.
