Product halts long showers

With water becoming as valuable as oil these days, it makes sense to conserve it whenever possible. Local sustainability-focused, Web-based store Greenfeet (www.greenfeet.com) offers a waterproof digital shower timer to help everyone in the household keep from luxuriating too long under the warm spray. The shower timer comes in six cute styles—a little green house, a bright-yellow bird, a blue water drop, a white cloud, a green turtle and a baby-blue star—with an easy-to-use countdown clock and buzzer alarm to let you know that it’s time to stop singing and get out. Get the kids to make a game out of bath time by seeing who can take the fastest shower. At $13.75, it’s an inexpensive way to save water and money, and have a little fun.
