I will start off - when i can't squeeze any more toothpaste out of the tube, I cut it into pieces and get at least 6 more times out of it by running my brush inside the tube (no I do not share my bathroom or toothpaste with any one else, so it's sanitary!)
OK, your turn!
me too, also use envelopes that are sent with junk mail, save string for further use, tear any unseable fabric to use as ties around bags,use tights etc for tying up plants/shrubs,use lipstick that is below the top,use supermarket plastic bags for lining rubbish bin in kitchen ---the smaller ones use to take tidbits to horse, reuse jiffy bags,cut arms off jumpers/sweatshirts/fleeces to make makeshift coats for dog rescue.
