An old green tip to place a brick into the tank of your toilet to help displace water and cut back on water usage each time you flush should be recalled. Over time, the brick can break down and clog up parts in the toilet, making it inefficient -- if not unusable. The best idea is to invest in a dual-flush toilet when you do need a new one; these toilets give you two options: a full flush when you need it and a half flush for everything else.

Small plastic water or soda bottles can be used as cold packs the next time you shop at the grocery store. Simply fill up the bottles with water and freeze them overnight with the cap screwed on. Place them inside a durable reusable bag or cooler and place your perishable groceries near them to keep them cool and fresh.

When is the best time to fill up a gas tank? When it's half full. A gas tank that is half full has less air inside the tank, so it helps minimize the evaporation of gasoline when you're filling up. Less evaporation means more actual gas will stay inside the tank, giving you more fuel for your money. Also, always be sure to fill it up to a full tank; it'll cut back on your visits, saving you money in the long run.
