Here in the store, I use RO waist water for the toilet. It
goes into the back of the toilet. And when you flush,
normaly the water in the reserve goes in the bowl, and as
it is filling the reserve, it also fills the bowl with the
smaller tube, But I moved the smaller tube so that it
fills the reserve instead, and the ro waist water slowly
fills the bowl. One nice thing about that is that if there
is backup in the flush, it won't spill onto the floor.

Distilling water is not such a good idea. I used distilled water in
my tank for two months and my KH dropped like crazy. See, distilled
water has no KH.
To tell you the truth, I save tap water and sit it for a week. My
filter takes care of stabilizing it but I keep the new addition to no
more than a gallon every two weeks.
Remember, I don't have a reef aquarium, corals are very sensitive to
chlorine, even a small amount will stress the polyps not to mention
anemones.

Remember, though. The OP was about what to do with _used_ water changes
taken out of the aquarium, in an effort to conserve water;

"Is there anything I could do with water change water from a marine
setup... or is it a case of tip it down the sink.(?)"

Presumably, the OP will be getting his original mix water from a source
that he finds to be acceptable, and is looking for a way to make salt water
useful after it has served its function in the aquarium.

I'm with Frank, keep the used marine water in a bucket by the loo, and use
it to flush the toilets, in place of city/well water.
