This is the shower head I have been using for the past 2 months:
Shop Oxygenics 1.75-GPM (6.6-LPM) Chrome 7-Spray WaterSense Showerhead at Lowes.com
So on average, my water usage has gone down by just over 100 gallons a month (was averaging just under 1000 gallons and I am now right around 880). That works out to about $1/month in water and about $0.40/month in sewer fees. I can't say how much I am saving on heating the extra ~100 gallons a month.
