I just read this tip in a newsletter...I thought it sounded like a good idea

Garden Water Savers

This spring I have been collecting plastic water bottles. I
poke a small hole in the bottom (for slow drainage) and plant
them in my garden, just deep enough that I can fill them with
water. This way I am recycling and I use less water in the
garden. The bottles allow the water to get to the deeper, more
vital roots of my vegetables. It works great!
