works for me wednesday

Thanks again To Diane, for introducing me to another weekly prompt-
Works for me Wednesday
This is a helpful prompt that has many people offering handy tips for all sorts of things.
for my first time participating, I decided to share this little tip-

If you're like me, You try to save a little money by buying HUGE containers of various cleaning supplies at Costco.
But, try pouring for example a gigantic bottle of pine sol into a funnel into a smaller one for under the sink!
When I was younger I looked at the challenge as a good way to pump iron while being resourceful. Now, however with
the beginnings of the dreaded arthritis.. WEll... I needed some help. Husband to the rescue! He started the tedious task of refilling hand soaps and windex bottles. With a lot less patience than I apparently have, He quickly came up with an alternate plan! TaDA! instead of recycling Those HUGE detergent containers, Why not RE-Use them? GReat Idea! but, Now it's back to being MY job again! Make sure you loosen the little cap for it to flow faster, but always tighten that up again!
