Is it odd that i never even thought of that? What a great idea! Will totally start doing this.
Yeah, just think of all the jars and containers you put in the recycle bin.
Re the plastic coffee containers I mentioned before, here's another use I put them to...
I was giving roland and otis a bath, and although they are good about it, I do everything to make it as stress free (for me as well, as possible).
I filled maybe 3-4 of those coffee containers with warm water, and left them at one end of the tub, by the drain. The bath water I draw for them is lower than the container.
Towards the end of their shampoo, I lean over and open the drain, let the bath water flow out, then use the already filled containers to rinse.
They get freaked by turning the water on, so this works out well.
. I've done that somewhat all along, but now I'm more adamant about reuse and reuse again. I reuse the plastic bags that some products come in (like dried fruit). I use paper towels, but at something like 1/20th the rate I did just a few years ago. I use glass jars (from pickles, etc) for freezer/refrig containers - prefer them to plastic anyway.
