Use it all

Always use all of everything. Turn bottles upside down and drain to get the last bit from them. Tear open sugar and flour sacks to get it all; squeeze or cut open tubes of anything to use it all before buying more. You bought it to use, not throw away.

Amazing how many people do think this is extreme when it *should* be common sense, imho. I also add a little water to some things like shampoo and shake to help loosen the contents up.

I agree with Meg. This should be common sense, but I know a lot of people who wouldn't even try. Alas.

I also put ketchup, mustard, salad dressing, etc upside down in the microwave for 5-10 seconds. The heat seems to make the substance flow easier. Be sure to watch--if the plastic starts to warp, stop immediately. You should not have trouble with a glass container.
