Today I saved 3 shortening containers when I made my soap, will have 10 saved by Thursday.
I also saved 2 gallons of water when I rinsed my dishes using the plastic dishpan and poured the water into 1/2 gallon jugs which I used to water my flowers tonight. The wash water I put in mop buckets (I have 3 that I bought for $1 each at the dollar store). I used that water to flush the toilet a few times today. I just put them in the bath tub and poured half down the toilet at a time. It might not work for a big family but when I'm home alone all day it works just fine. So no new water was wasted and that's about 5 gallons total that I didn't have to pay for.
