    you have to be a special kind of crazy to buy a no touch soap dispenser.

    What do you do immediately after touching the soap or dispenser?

    Wash your hands!

    Lol.... yeah, it's a daft idea, but I got a couple free with the refills a while ago, and I wasn't going to say no. ;)
    There's a storm coming, Mr Johnson. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.
  • I was trying to order some storage boxes online and have just noticed they don't qualify for free store delivery.

    I'm too mean to pay delivery! Can anyone tell me if these zip up boxes are available in store? Has anybody seen them?

    Thankyou

    Just got 2 of these today so thanks for pointing them out. They are really good quality and come in a few sizes. I got the large but was tempted by the extra large. There is also a small and a very small. I got both the green and pink but think I prefer the green. Still not sure what I am going to use them for but who cares - I just love storage boxes!! :j

    Not at all.

    I'm cooking chicken and need the juices off my hands. I can either press the top of a standard soap dispenser and contaminate it, or I can put my hands under the no touch dispenser, get the soap I need to remove the grease and sanitise my hands, and turn on my kitchen tap with my elbow as it's designed for.

    Not sure how that makes me any kind of crazy tbh.

    That's exactly why I have them and once the dispensers were empty I got DH to drill a hole in the top of the bottle and I refill it with cheaper hand wash :j

    I just popped the top off mine with a screw driver or knife and rerfilled I also filled one with baby shampoo so much easier when bathing a baby than messing about with tops

    Yes but the next person to touch the soap dispenser is also going to wash their hands immediately afterwards, thus getting rid of any chicken germs.
