WFMW: Sample Shampoo Holder

Someone asked me what I do with the shampoo packet samples that I get. I use them!

Actually, she wanted to know how I keep them from spilling out and making a mess in the shower.

I keep them upright in a plastic juice container that is on the tub, outside the shower curtain so they do not get wet or watered down and the container does not collect water and get funky inside.

I do not have pets or children so this is not the safest option for those households, but this works for me!

Drop by Rocks in My Dryer to link off to the other Works for Me Wednesday participants. If you are participating, please take note of the new guidelines, which requests a short description of your post (very cool idea). I re-read the original guidelines and realized I have probably been in violation:
Each week I'll post a little time-saving tip I've stumbled upon.
Mine may not be time savers at first glance, but in this case, I will not have to clean up spilled shampoo because my loyal readers know I don't really clean my shower Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner does!

Slightly unrelated, I am still accepting non-prescription remedies for migraines (ugh), see next post.

This is a great idea, and I think it could work for all sorts of packets. You could store soy sauce or hot sauce in your kitchen. But I like the shampoo idea best. I'm always getting freebies and they just seem to get tossed around. I'm gonna save my next plastic can and do this!

ha ha, we do kinda have the same idea, your's is more after you open them and don't use it all so it doesn't get all over the sink or a bath. really cute idea. you could even decorate the old juice container if you were really creative with it.

thanx for stopping by my site.

Awesome suggestion! I love to recycle. Very smart thinking! :)

Thanks for the suggestion you left on my blog to try Lestoil. I had never heard of it and can't wait to give it a try!
