Love this idea!! However, DH already thinks I collect too much stupid stuff! (He's right, I do but it all has re-purpose potential!!) Patty, Collector Extrordinaire!

Neat idea but the zip lock bags with closing tab is easier for me. When I open a bag I put the bag and contents in a zip lock.

Hey guys...Just sit it on a counter before you unscrew. lol

I think I will stick with twist-ties, I only have about 3000 in my drawer.

So clever! They sell something siliar to this, but this is so mech better. Free! (sort of.) lol

This is a great idea, but I live in Oregon, so each one will cost me a nickel! Better than stale dry goods or bugs! :lol:

can you leave all the parts together and keep things in the bottle instead?

I would unscrew the top and drop the bag on the floor. Better stick to ziplocks.
