Leave your faucet dripping

Whenever I go out of town in the winter, I leave a little drip in my faucet to guard against pipes freezing.  One year, I went to the Caribbean but when I left, it was 40 degrees in Chicago. While there, I noticed that Chicago had gone into a deep freeze. Within an hour of getting home, my pipes burst.  I'm lucky it happened when I got home and that saved me, perhaps thousands of dollars.

So, a tip to the wise is crucial.  A little drip will save you a LOT!
