How much toothpaste do we need? TV advertisements show us to cover the whole toothbrush. Why not try and use a little less each day and find out how little we actually need!

When you think you have got all the toothpaste or hand cream out of a plastic container, cut off the bottom of the container & you will be surprised how much paste or hand cream is left which can be used.

When Toothpaste tube is empty, cut open the end and sides. Wrap in Cling wrap and you have enough for a week. Also good for hand creams etc.

When a toothpaste tube becomes empty, cut open one end and keep closed with two clothes pegs. There could be enough left inside for a whole week.

I buy a four pack of soap (only on special), then remove wrappers put in hot water cupboard. This makes them hard and last much longer.
