Yes if your employer does not know you take them as you have not paid for them. thb though I would rather someone had them than they be wasted!
What is the actual store policy ?

If policy is to bin sachets left by diners this adds to landfill -also it is wasting food and the electricity to manufacture the packaging and fill them - so while it is contravening company policy to take discarded sachets home I don't think it is as bad as stealing since nobody has been deprived of anything. It is, I think, more ethical to reduce landfill than stick to the company policy which is about health and safety liability from possibly contaminated sachets.

Just wanted to confirm that the diluted [good quality] washing up liquid goes a real l-o-n-g way when you you a hand soap dispenser.

Now to convert the masses to using them for shampoo & shower gel.....wish me Luck:p

Pound shops have mint source shampoo and conditioner for £1. They also do simple shower gel.

I got a 2 litre, (about 4 pints) bottle of dishwashing liquid at beginning of the year for NZ $2.20 (so thats about 0.7 pounds?) in January and I still have a pint and a half left...I put a little bit from the big container into a regular squirty bottle (one pint size), about a finger thickness up the bottle and then top up with water and use this to wash dishes...I am challenging myself to stretch this the whole year now, think I can manage it...

Do less dishes, lol :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Following on from the shower gel, I always use Original Source, it's quite expensive, though usually it's half price somewhere, but the smell is so strong, you only need the tiniest amount. I use Simple soap, and then a tiny squeeze of OS.
Also their Mint and Tea Tree shaving foam is quite reasonably priced, and the tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic.

And it's Vegan When I was vegan it was the only range I could find on the high street, other than Lush which was okay to use. I still use it now and always stock up when it's on BOGOF (which seems to be a lot!)

I love Lush, but they're so expensive and they closed the only branch within 50 miles of me.
Their shampoo bars last forever though
