Plastic Squeezable Bottles

I am noticing plastic everywhere now. It's hard to get away from it. All of our lotions, sunscreens, shampoos, shower gels, honey, water, etc. come in plastic bottles. Have you tried to squeeze honey or shampoo out of a glass bottle? What did we ever do before plastic? I think we used bar soap for everything, including washing our face and hair. Frankly, I'm not ready to give up my volumizing shampoo and special conditioners and squeezable honey bottles, so here are my solutions:

1. Try to minimize these items as much as possible. Only buy what you know you need and will use.

2. Make sure the bottle is #1 or #2 plastic. These items are less toxic and more recyclable than other plastics.

3. Use every last drop! Believe it or not, at the point that you think your shampoo bottle is empty and would normally throw it away, there is at least one more week's worth of shampoo in the bottle. I have tested this. Just think, if you used your shampoo or shower gel or conditioner for one more week each time you buy it, you would end up with far less plastic being thrown into your recycle bin each year, not to mention the fact that you would save yourself quite a bit of money, and in this current economy who wouldn't want to save a little money? Here's what I do:
a) Prop the bottle upside down (I prop it up with another bottle). At this point you can use the soap, shampoo, conditioner or whatever for at least 5-7 more days.
b) When you can't squeeze another drop out, add a little water and swish it around. At this point you will have about 1-2 days worth left in the bottle.
c) Recycle bottle
