What do you do with the end of the bar of soap?

[crosses]

What do you do when the bar of soap becomes too small to really use, but it isn't completely gone?

I usuallly put them together and use them stuck to each other, unless I'm cranky and then I just throw them away.

lose it down the drain?

Actually I always wanted to stick it in a pump bottle with some water, shake and use as soap. but well I do always lose it

When I was a kid we always made it stick to the new one for a time.

I should save them to add in liquid pump but always forget. LOL

I put them in an old shampoo bottle with a little water and shake it occasionally. When it is runny, I put it in the pump bottle.

Collect them in onion bags and hang them outside near the shrubs, flowers that deer like to eat and it will act as a repellant.

I stick it to my next bar. Always interesting to see how one side of the soap wears down faster than the other.

ha,ha...I have a "soap bag"...it's a bag made out of tulle (sp?) ...that fabric that is used for tutus, mosquito netting and brides' veils?? I have a small bag made of that and I put the slivers of soap in there....works great!...

My grandmother has always put them in to her hand soap pump with a little water .

Place them in an old pair of panty hose and knot the top. Works great!

I use liquid soap so you can use the very last drop.

Liquid soap has its advantages. Refills are cheaper and if you use a plastic pump, less waste to add to the environment.

Plus, when you get near to the bottom, you can just take off the top, pour in some water, and swish it around to get the very last bits.

I put mine in a pump bottle with hot water. Also, I have a small terry cloth bag I put it in (I made it from a washcloth) with a long draw string top to hang it to keep it out of the water. We use that in the shower. I made some of those when the girls were just starting to take their own bath and had a hard time holding onto the slippery soap. Also, I keep a little peice of soap (or a sample size or hotel size bar) in each suitcase to help keep the suitcase fresh smelling when not in use. (And, you can use it if your forget to pack a bar)

Mom-from-missouri: how do you clean the terry cloth bag? Do you have two that you alternate? This sounds like a good idea.

[mom-from-missouri]

Actually, each girl has several (same colors as their toothbrushes and hairbrushes-so we know whose is whose). I just open the drawstring, remove the soap, and throw in the was with the towels. I have also seen them made like pockets--with velcro or zipper closures, and then a hanging loop.
