  1 - Get an electricity monitor. I was amazed at how much I spent on all those things that are left on stand-by, lights left on, how much that kettle costs to boil etc. Now I turn everything off that is not needed, boil only the water that I will use and switch lights off. These are all things that we are advised to do but its only when you actually see how much it costs that the incentive is there to turn off!
  2 - Have meat free days. The soya protein meat replacement from Holland and Barrett is a great replacement in bolognaise and chilli, or use lentils and beans. Much healthier too and no horrible fat and gristle that you get in cheap mince. Veggie stew and dumplings is on the cards tonight. Yummie!
  3 - Walk to your local shops. They could use the trade and you are saving fuel costs.
  4 - Turn down your heating and put on more layers. Its daft sitting around in a T shirt in an overheated house in the middle of winter.
