This could be an old one but thought I's share it anyway, being the sort of person who turns the shampoo bottle upside down I like to get my moneys worth. Anyway, last week thought I'd squeezed all I could out of a tube of moisturiser, thought I'd check and cut the end off it, 14 applications later I'm still using it, I reckon I'll get another 3 days out of it yet as well, how good is that!;)
 
Blimey grego what conditioner is it so i can get that amount, thats the one thing that goes quick in this place mmmm best check if i have any left for me later after kids have splashed me bathroom through.
 
Ahhhhh oooo i should put me glasses on doh! LOL tho if u do know of long lasting conditioner let me know PMSL!!!
 
I dont know a long lasting one because I think I put too much on, but a great Leave-In conditioner is the Aussie Miracle one.

I've not tried that mmmmm will try that even better if its a leave in one :)
 
I've been snipping the tops off moisturiser tubes for years. You can normally get at least 2 weeks worth of use out of them. It comes in handy if it's an expensive one like Clarins, Lancome or ROC.

I've even been known to re-cycle my old work tights. If you have 2 pairs of tights, each having ladders in one leg. Cut off the laddered legs, put the 2 gussets together and thread the good leg off one pair through the other gusset. Your tights last longer and 2 gussets keep you warm in winter....:D
 
I put all the bits of soap into one of those net bags(the ones that you are supposed to put washing detergent tablets in) and hang under the bath tap.....so I get a bubbly bath from the bits.

Another use for those detergent tablet bags...... they are ideal for keeping your loose change in. I thought that I was the only one to do this, but recently saw another lady in the bank with the same idea. It saves straining the clasp on your purse.

Good tip for the tights Lettie but even I'm not that tight!:p


I have it to do Grego... I am determined that I will be retiring at 55, failing that, only working 10 hours a week. How else can I do that if I don't get my money's worth out of stuff..:D
 
I think it'll take more than moisturiser Margaret! Just used the last of it tonight anyway, the tube was bone dry:)
