    Another bundle of 2016 removed from cupboard, sorted and shredded/put in recycling bin. A couple of missing things came to light and now filed appropriately.

    I am hoping to come across the instruction booklet for a small electrical beauty item that I would like to offer on Freegle, fingers crossed that it will come to light.

    I do this with everything: pump bottles, squeezy tubes, toothpaste

    I turn everything upside down to get every last bit and then rinse the bottle and lid for the final use. I have a metal squeezy thing for toothpaste. we are going over to solid shampoo bars and conditioners in an a effort to reduce the amount of plastic we use and back to bars of soap for hand washing, showers and baths - no more plastic bottles :)
