    And don't forget to also invest in adult sheepskin head gear with cute floppy rabbit ears. That and the adult sheepskin foot-muff will be enough to generate extra therms and renewed interest in you from the new man in your life. 😉

    18) Boil the (electric) kettle for water for pasta, rice and frozen veg to go on the hob (immersion heating, so less energy wasted).
    19) Go supermarket shopping in the evening when they are reducing prices.
    20)
    21) Buy goods on eBay or elsewhere online.
    22) If you want to read the classics, get an eBook reader and download them (the vast majority) for free.
    23) Treat your big purchases as investments in your life.
    24) If you enjoy computer games, don't buy a new one until you've completed the ones you've got.
    25) Take up a hobby, for example, playing an instrument. If you learn music you will spend less time going to expensive bars and pubs.
    26) Shop around for cheaper energy amd broadband deals.
    27) Read rather than watch.
    28) Don't take your car to go 1km (grrrr!).
    29) Wash your clothes at 40C (unless you have bed bugs)
    30) Learn how to fix things
    31) Don't buy the cheapest, it's usually a false economy.
    32) Heat only the room you're in during the winter (but don't let your pipes freeze!)

    Save money on bricks by putting turds in the holding tank.

    34) Use both sides of the toilet paper.
    35) Squirrel roadkill -- it's what's for dinner.
    36) Only drive downhill.
    37) Save a sneeze for caulk and spackle.
    38) Use toilet holding tank water to wash socks and underwear (it's not like water used to flush crap has to be pristine).
    39) Use loose threads on old pants as dental floss.
    40) Concerning condoms: rinse and repeat.
    41) Decorate for Christmas by turning on your trailer's hazard lights.
    42) Use apple stems for Q-tips.

    alternative 29) Buy a decent brand of laundry detergent and wash your clothes in cold water, as more than half of Australian households have been doing for years. You only need to use hot water if you wear everything white.

    In a similar vein, wash everything (all colours, including white) together. In cold water just don't get the whites "dirty".
    Don't wear white before May 24th or after Sept 7th.
