Free water butt kits - South West Water Customers

Posts: 2 Newbie
South West Water seem to giving away 100 litre and 200 litre water butt kits to customers again. Last year they ran out really fast so not sure how quick you need to be.
Sorry, it won't let me post a link as I'm new but go to South West Water's website, click the 'Every drop counts' button
and fill out a brief survey about your water use at home (make sure you say you have a garden and use mains water). You should get offered some home widgets and the option of a water butt kit.
It says a 20 week lead time but my mum ordered hers last month and got it this week. I requested mine yesterday so hopefully it will be here soon!

Drat - although I'm in the SW I'm not a SWW customer. And my water company doesn't currently have any water saving devices that I can get. Strangely I get referred to "GetWaterFit" and when I try to register with them they say my post code isn't correct!!I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.

Ah, that's a shame. Looks like GetWaterFit look after various water companies and are also connected to Save Water Save Money so maybe you could try going through their site instead? www.savewatersavemoney.co.uk0
