This is no ad, these are products I use, and they vary.
But they have one thing in common: They are made to cheat us!
The one to the left, and the middle ones were "empty". "Used".
I do this, I take some scissors...
And then I keep using those creams for another 2-3 weeks, look what´s still in there!
Happy, Happy bEARTHday from here, too! And with this I also join Bleubeard and Elizabeth´s recycling theme.
"Outsmart" those companies if you don´t get your products in glass-bowls where you see what´s left, I think, right?

...I have scissors like yours, but no cream.
I do the same thing, with paint too. I hate when you can't get all of the creamy substance out. I always try to use up every last little bit that I paid for. Smile. Thanks for sharing another drawing with us at AJJ. And happy weekend Iris. hugs-Erika
I do that, too. It makes a huge difference! I've also rescued a lot of paint from tubes that way.
Yup
A very useful tip indeed!
Quite handy!
Great tip to get all what you paid for.
It is the same thing with plastic bottles that have a top that you can't unscrew. I take a set of pliers to them and twist the top until it comes off and there is sometimes an inch of cream left in there.
yep good post Iris hugs
Happy Earth Day

Happy Earth day.
Coffee is on and stay safe.
I have been doing exactly the same thing for many years now. Especially the big "pump" bottles of shampoo and hair conditioner, where the product is thick enough so it doesn't run down the insides to where it can get pumped from the bottom. I cut those open and find almost half the product is clinging to the sides, so I scrape it out into an empty screw top jar and use it. Sometimes I add a little water to make it runnier and pour it into empty squeeze bottles that used to hold tomato sauce.
I am running so far behind, Iris. Thank you for the bEARTHday wishes, dear. I LOVE your
idea for the cream. For shampoo, I add water to the last of the shampoo and get at least five more washes. Frugal is NOT overrated! Thanks, too, for this great entry at AJJ using Bleubeard's and my theme. LOVE that drawing.
