How Do You Extend The Life Of Your Bathroom Products?

Squeezing Your Toothpaste Tube

We’re all guilty of it. A lot of the time we’re too lazy to hit up the pharmacy to refill the products we’re running out of. Whether it’s a new tube of tooth paste, hair product or shampoo. Rich Davis was a culprit of this today when he was running out of his toothpaste, and just about everything else.

Ryan is guilty of cutting open his products to get the last drop, and Stanley T will hang them upside down so he make sure to get it all. This isn’t limited to just bathroom, and hygiene products. Someone actually called and told us that when they bought milk in bulk, if it’s on sale, they would freeze it to make sure it doesn’t curdle, and it can all be used.

What lengths do you go to in order to insure that you get your money’s worth of a product you guy? How much will you stretch the use of something out, maybe if you are just too lazy or don’t have time to go to the store? Share your secrets with all of us! Who knows, maybe we can all learn some tricks!

    I love buying new products – I feel bad that I waste so much because I’m always excited to buy the next new product and I hardly ever use the last 10-20% of my bathroom products. Example – I bought new tooth paste yesterday when the one I last had isn’t empty yet.

    When i make spaghetti, i use food storage bags to save it for a later date since i can’t finish it by myself. Once that spaghetti is gone i don’t throw out the bag, i wash the bag and keep it until i make the next pot of spaghetti!

    When my husband was a child, his family would collect & save ketchup packets from every fast food joint they went to. When the ketchup bottle at home was running low, my husband, his brother and sister would sit at the table and squirt ketchup packets into the ketchup bottle.

    With milk being a solution, when you freeze it you are ok. When you thaw out milk though it’s not milk anymore. Depending on how deep a freeze it was and for how long some to most of the chemical bonds inside the milk will break causing it to split up. Left like this it will eventually curdle but in the mean time you aren’t drinking milk. What you are drinking is something I won’t describe here ;)
