[shadon]

I'm with you jodi m. My DH is lazy and would rather throw out the "empty" toothpaste tube but I take it off him and keep using it myself and give him a new tube (he brushes in the shower, I brush at the basin. Still trying to break him of this habit as it such a waste of water and power!).

DH also likes only one type of soap. Naturally this type of soap is expensive, at $1.99 a bar so when he has finished with a bar I delay buying another and give him a Hotel bar of soap (of which we have heaps as I used to travel for work and so does DH). I won't buy him a new bar of soap until he has used at least one Hotel bar. My girls use the main bathroom and all they have ever used in their is Hotel soap.

I use our dishwasher only when guests are over for dinner. I handwash every day (my power bills are already over $600 without using the dw).
