Yes, but mostly because my sink is sluggish...often.

Time to buy Drano.

I fill a cup with water,wet the brush,apply the toothpaste and brush/floss and rinse. No need to have water running constantly for that.

I usually fill a small cup when I brush my teeth.  I never leave the water running.

My hubby always brushes his teeth while he is in the shower and the water is running anyway.

Yes.  I try to conserve and save wherever possible.  Running water not being used is wasted water.  Lights left on when no one is in the room is a waste of energy.
Have a wonderful day!

I turn off the water and I am always telling my kids to do the same too. I don't like the idea of wasting water and I also do not want to have an expensive water bill. I like to save.

I turn the water off while brushing my teeth.  I started doing it when I was younger because I didn't want to waste the water now I do it because of the noise.
