Bar soap

[P T]

I wonder what other people do with the end of a bar of soap. Being a
frugal person, I get it good and squishy moist, and p-r-e-s-s it onto a
new bar of soap. I've been known to save the unused portion of a
mini-bar from a hotel, and do the same. Sometimes it doesn't look
pretty, but it's only soap.

I tend to do the same thing with my soap; most of the time it works to
adhere to the new bar.

On a related subject; what's up with these shampoo bottles that don't
have twist off caps (VO5 comes to mind)? They have really small
dispensing holes and it's very hard to add water to get the last bit
out. Same with some of these jugs of detergent (though I do poke a
drain hole in the bottom side to drip into a new jug).

The whole top just snaps off--use the back of a strong kitchen
knife--and then snaps back on after you've added water. Although I do
use the squish-onto-the new-bar technique for soap, I really don't
think diluting the shampoo is worthwhile. Instead I just store the
nearly-empty bottle upside down and use it from that inverted
position.

I put the slivers in a bucket in water near the washing machine and use
a bottle brush to apply the liquid soap to spot treat stubborn dirt
spots. Like ring around the collar. Works great!

I use the water diluted shampoo for the 2nd (aka "repeat") sudsing.
Also do the upside down bottle trick.

While the tops do pop off, with mild to moderate effort, why not just squeeze
the container and suck up some water?

I thought everybody sold the remaining small bars to hotel chains. I
surprised there is enough left, after a drown proof shower to recycle
any further.
