A leaky kitchen tap at 1 drop per second wastes more than 25 L of water per day or 9,000 L a year. At our prices (9,000 L = 9 m3, 9 m3 x 0.76 = $6.84) that works out to $6.84 per year. Fixing the tap usually costs nothing more than a washer at about 5¢ so fix the tap and use your water savings to buy extra food for your pantry (eg. savings would put 5 packages of dry pasta in your pantry assuming $1.29 per package).
