Where I live our water is a CO-OP. Water is $56.30 a month wether you use it or not. Pricey to boot after that. What hurts we live at a lake. With the grand kids spend weekends and a week with "D"my water is well used. I came up with a plan. I shower with a gallon bucket and you can all most fill it in a ten minuet shower. With a 4,6 and 8 year old tub bath is the best. We have the rule about the toilet. "If it brown flush it down if it yellow let it stand!" With as much rain as we have had my septic tanks are working very slow so we have to be careful. I find that if I use water from my shower and the kid bath to flush the toilet. It works. My gray water is sprayed on my yard and garden. I have seen a decrease in my water bill. Anybody got any suggestions for saving more water at home?
