Install an inexpensive low-flow shower head to cut down on the amount of water you use. Using less water will save you money on water, electric and/or gas bills.
When buying light bulbs try buying a lesser wattage than normal or a compact fluorescent bulb. You will save money on electricity daily.
If you will be out of a room more than 3 seconds, it saves money to turn off the light.

COMPACT LIGHT BULBS - When you install a new bulb write the date in marker on the bulb base, that way you will know how long it actually lasts.
I just discarded a bulb marked 08/93 and replaced it 09/01 ... pretty good life!
Buy a bar of soap, grate it, mix it with water , melt it down in the microwave (watch out for it bubbling over) and refill handwash bottles. Saves keep on buying the plastic bottles and it's so much cheaper too. If it is too thick when cold just add more boiled water and shake. Hassle but worth it!
