I decided to try cutting the empty tube of toothpaste in half, then wash it out for recycling. I was surprised at how much was left in what seemed like an empty tube. However, I washed it out and it is now ready for recycling. It is a good way to empty the tube.
I had previously washed out a whole tube for recycling

There's something special for squeezing out the last bit, I just don't know what it's called!
We have a tool for that - must look and take a pic!
Good idea. Oh, recyling can take up a lot of your day. I'm glad you are on top of it.
I don't know..some tooth paste tubes are easier to clean than others.
Oh, you are a saint. I'm not always up to doing something like this. Thanks for the tip!
I want to see how much gets left in my tubes now because I when I throw mine out it's reach the point I can't squeeze anything out of them.
Good idea!
Good for you, Christine!
👍👍
Thanks for the tip Christine.
Good idea :-D
I cut mine and use the rest. There's always stuff left. Same with food too. I often have to swoosh water around the ketchup because that is not going to waste.
thanks for sharing
It's great that you're doing that. I have to admit that I'm sometimes too lazy for it.
I have a took that I put a tube into and it removes almost all of what is in the tube. I also cut plastic containers open to get what's left inside. Good job here.
Good for you!
Genial. Te mando un beso.
Well done 👍
All the best Jan
Same thing with quarts of paint. Gallons not so much but you lose a lot of paint clinging to the quart since it hides in the lack of space
