Save $$ - Go (Lime) Green

I think we're closet tree-huggers because we tend to be environment friendly and energy conscious people. We certainly have a long way to go though.

We have found a few really simple ways to go a little green (lime green if you will) and as a result save a little money in return; here is what you can do too:

*Reduce grocery bill by planting a garden of your favorite veggies.
*Reduce electric bill by hanging clothes outside to dry.
*Reduce water bill by collecting rain-water to water the garden and flowers.
*Reduce gas bill by washing clothes in cold water in Coldwater Tide.
*Reduce gas/electric bills by adjusting thermostat 2 degrees seasonally.
*Reduce electric bill by unplugging un-used electronics chargers.
*Reduce expenses by re-using or re-cycling! Reduce consumerism.
*Reduce e-waste by recycling all your old technology gadgets.

And if you want to boldly go green, here is some great information and ideas.
