ok... a question about not wasting..

I've taken 3 pots to work and put them by the basins for use after washing hands

Use it as a hand cream
Slather it on your feet and pop a pair of socks on at bedtime
Re-gift it
Donate it
Use it as a lubricant when shaving your legs

I save all unwanted bottles including bubble bath and body lotion for the bottle stall at our church fayre.

I'd stick it in my handbag and use as and when, esp after handwashing.

I love the idea of this (and tbh palming stuff off that I'll never use) - but isn't this viewed with suspicion rather than as a genuine act of kindness?

I think I'm going to do this with toothbrushes and toothpastes the next time I see a homeless person. Clean teeth is a basic act of hygiene that makes people feel much happier!

Or, if it is an especially thick cream, like body butter, you could use it to re-wax a "Barbour" type coat.

I know what you mean. I don't want to hang around too long in this house with no clothes on, freezing my t * t s off. Besides what's the point of scrubbing yourself clean, only to slap more gunge on your skin.

Use as hand cream after washing the pots, or give it away.

You don't wear rubber gloves when washing up? :eek:

I hate body lotion, it always seems slimey and takes me ages to put on, rub it in, wait for it to soak in and then get dressed. I usually give it to a friend, who lovs the stuff. Funnily enough I do love body butter, especially Body shop or lush.

Or clean leather car seats with it.

I certainly don't; I'd drop too many dishes if I wore gloves.:(

I never get around to using either body lotion or hand cream, either.:cool:
