Quart Jars of Water in Your Commode

To save water in your commode tank, if you have one of the bigger tanks. Fill two quart sized canning jars full of water. Take tank lid off, and flush the toilet. Right away, put the two filled jars in the corner of the tank, so as not to interfere with with the flapper and other working parts. The jars can only touch tank walls.

You may only be able to put one jar in due to the size and shape of your tank, but make sure the jars do not interfere with the working parts. This will save on the amount of water it takes to fill your tank.
