If you have an old garden hose that's still somewhat okay, you can make a soaker hose! Just use a small drill bit or a hammer and nail to poke holes every 6 inches along its length. Cap the end, and snake it through your garden. It's not perfect, but it's a fantastic way to water deeply at the root level for free. It works best with low water pressure.
