Use the same cup all day.
I don’t know about your household, but it seems ever since the kids have been home from school, there are tons of extra glasses in the dishwasher every day. This is besides the many reusable water bottles and cups they have in their bedrooms.
My solution: Use one cup or glass for the whole day. Remember which one you are using so you don’t have to grab another one. You will save water each day from washing so many of them and you might not need to run the dishwasher every day.
