Thank goodness I'm not alone. Shampoo is one culprit. Last night I wrestled with not one but 2 bottles of skin cleanser. When I broke the first one trying to get it to work right I thought I would try the second one and just use the same pump for both. Of course, I broke that one too and now I'm left with NOTHING.

My MIL showed us about cutting the bottles of whatever when they stop pumping so we can NOTHING but get the last amount of whatever out of the container. NOTHING but smart, I do it and fondly think about her often. Her biggest wish was to move back to Florida because moving north was killing her with the cold. We had our moments but I was lucky to have the bestest MIL out of anyone I know.

Thanks for the memory!

I know they tend to stop working right toward the end but sometimes I can't get them working from the beginning........ I do the bottle cutting thing too. It's amazing how much is still left sometimes - what a waste to just throw it out.

Looks like most of you guys, including my husband, had great MILs. That is NOTHING but a blessing. Hope one day, if I ever become one, that I can be a blessing to my DIL.
