My tips...

Save money on seeds by collecting them from the fruit or vegetables that you eat. Just be aware that some fruit and vegies have been treated to make them sterile. If you are hoping to plant something like an avocado or peach tree, the seeds may take a long time to germinate (avocadoes can take up to a year).
You'll be amazed at how much water goes down the drain before it is warm enough for you to hop in the shower. Try keeping a bucket in the bathroom to collect the water in. A nappy bucket would do the trick. You can then use the water for cleaning or put it on the garden.
Another water saving tip is to collect the rinse water from your washing machine and put that on the garden. I use an environmentally friendly washing detergent so any residue will have minimal impact on my lawn.
Keep an empty plastic milk carton by the kitchen sink. When you go to wash the dishes, instead of wasting water by having it go down the drain while you are waiting for it to get hot...have it run into the milk carton. Then you can use the water for cleaning, put on the garden, etc. I find I usually get about 2 to 3 litres of water in it before the water gets hot, which in the past would have gone straight down the drain!
