"Shampoo is great for rubbing into collars and cuffs of shirts etc before washing them
I got this idea from the American Queen of Clean book!"
I second this. I have just bought some really cheap shampoo in order to do just this - never before been able to get rid of dirty teenager tide marks on shirts and cuffs!! This works!!0 -

I buy as few toiletries as poss - shampoo serves as handwash/shower gel just as well as shampoo :P also use conditioner instead of shave gel - *way* cheaper and leaves skin softer - and got a big bottle of handwash that i use as shower gel as well. i buy seperate shampoo/conditioner, if i want 2in1 for hols or whatever i just mix them in an empty bottle :P0

I have a ton of shampoo (either freebies, competition wins etc) ..all pretty expensive stuff but too much for me to use in this lifetime...
Any good uses for shampoo (maybe cleaning UPVC or something?)
TIA
