I cant imagine gathering water for the plants from water glasses. You m ust have a lot less to water then I do. LOl Yesterday I spent 4 hours watering gardens. The entire time two hoses were going. I was running back and forth switching them to other plants. I would be watering for days and days if I did it from the glasses collecting. But it for sure would work if one had simple things like patio plants.<BR/><BR/>I have been setting my crockpot on the deck for years to save the heat in the house but then Im not the most saving in other ways. I move the crockpot outside but run the dryer! How dumb is that! <BR/><BR/>Hoep you see a significant change in your energy bills. What you're doing is hard work. I commend you!Mrs. Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12911621891840832728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812208706999245048.post-4764868806358015582008-08-18T10:42:00.000-05:002008-08-18T10:42:00.000-05:00Good tips and ideas...I need to look at our budget...Good tips and ideas...I need to look at our budget also...Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14640033985134379189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812208706999245048.post-72058894779590786512008-08-18T09:39:00.000-05:002008-08-18T09:39:00.000-05:00Very good ideas!

It seems we pay way to much for convenience in a lot of areas.<BR/><BR/>Also I am glad to know that I am not the only one who seems to always be washing clean clothes. Drives me crazy!Valarie Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03246244572843705930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812208706999245048.post-5151523277783299132008-08-18T09:28:00.000-05:002008-08-18T09:28:00.000-05:00I'm really enjoying your tips and ideas. Our house...I'm really enjoying your tips and ideas. Our household budget has gotten out of control this summer, the month of July we were over by $700 and one weekend in Aug we spent over $100 eating out, this is crazy! I drive a Yukon XL also and I try to make every trip out a productive one. We live in a small town, the closest CVS, Target, Sams etc is 1 1/2 hours away I try to go once a month and visit my mom at the same time. My food budget which includes all personal items and household cleaning items is about $800 a month for a family of four and I don't know what to do about it. So please keep posting your methods, they are a huge help!<BR/><BR/>Take Care<BR/>MichelleMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05377601785369106371noreply@blogger.com
