TMR Frugal Living Tip #61

Today's thrifty living tip is add a little water to your liquid hand soap. I don't fill the pump container all the way to the top, and I add just a small amount of water. I don't actually measure the water but just enough to thin it out. Then I shake well to help mix the water and soap. I find most liquid soaps are pretty thick which gets wasted. This is especially true if you have small children. My mom uses baby shampoo as a hand soap, and she still puts a little water in the dispenser. I got my soap almost free with sales and coupons. I have used baby shampoo which does work and smell great.

I do this, but I think I go overboard (too much water, lol). Oh well. I suppose it still works...
