Default Re: Those little things...

I love that I'm not alone!

I put a little hot water in condition/shampoo/ketchup/etc. bottles. I don't buy liquid handsoap, but there was a container when I moved in 4 years ago. I put old bar soap in that container, and sometimes water, and sometimes I shake it- still going strong. I wash ziplocs. I dpn't use paper plates or paper napkins, or even paper towels. I did get an old-fashioned diner aper napkin dispenser, and if we ever get take out or fast food I always take the paper napkins and put in the dispenser (sometimes I need to fold them) so if something is too gross for a rag I do have disposable.

I take the small tissue boxes, and refill with toilet paper. I gently lift the flaps. I take a roll of TP and pull out the inner cardboard, and pull a little from the middle. I put the TP in the box and tape down the flaps. I never buy the tissue boxes, but I was given one at work as a joke because they found my TP roll funny (I had a cold!). Actually, just the other day I "scored" an empty box-an exciting moment.
