Don't do enough research into how their products containers are made and absolutely refuse to allow you (the buyer) to get out all of the product you purchased!

My examples are Crest Toohtpaste: the ones that stand on your counter and also are made of hard enough plastic that you can't squeeze, shake, push out the remaining 1 inch of toothpaste that you know is left in it.

Garnier Nutritioniste microbead cream scrub - this stuff is THICK in texture and with the bottle they placed it in. I again can't squeeze, bend the container enough to get out all the product.

I have has cream lotion bottles do this also.
Oh how about spray products where the little pumper stops working half way through the bottle! Ok fine I have another bottle that I can use and then combine the two when I get enough room only to have that pumper give out 1/2 way through!!! Now I have enough product to fill one whole bottle and no spray top that works!!

I feel like I need a tool chest in the shower with me to get all these products out. You know, cut the bottle apart and using a finger scoop out the left over 1/4 of the products!

The last one I just found while using the last of my crisco oil with the little measuring cup as the lid. I can't get out about 1/4 cup of oil as I can't direct it into the little spout thingy!!! So now I had a recipe that calls for 2/3 cup oil and I am honestly 1/4 cup shy, but it's still in the darn bottle!

So instead opened up the nice little paper wrapped stick of butter and scooped up my 1/4 inch of easy to access butter to complete my BROWINES!!!!

Do you find any products where the packaging is totally incorrect for you the consumer?
Do men make these containers or chimpanzies!!

ROTFL.... I so feel your pain... I am totally a squeeze every last drop out.... bring home the samples and the bottle freebies kind of girl. I actually have a funnel that has clamps on the top and the bottom I is actually made to hold one bottle upside down so you can drain the rest of the stuff into the new bottle... It is like the best invention ever....

I would also like to point out that there is no shame in cutting a container apart and scooping the stuff out.... I mean doesnt everyone do this???

Ok containers I dislike... Mayo jars... to get the stuff out of the bottom you have to cover your hand in mayo... ummmmmm cant think of anything else right now but I will try...

Ahhahahahaha.....OMG, Too funny!! You're so right Tracey!! I'm with you!

I have some face wash that comes in the hard plastic bottle that of coarse by the time it gets to the bottom it's impossible to get it all out.

AND..I wont buy the toothpaste in those upright hard plastic things for the very same reason. LOL

You go girl! Get it all out! (I mean the frustration...ROFL!)

LOL Jess "I would also like to point out that there is no shame in cutting a container apart and scooping the stuff out.... I mean doesnt everyone do this???"

I haven't done it yet personally but I have seen others do it and now I am close to it! SEriously with the prices we pay for some of these products they should have a little resivour! Don't label it as 2 ozs if all I can get out is 1 1/2 oz!! ROFL

I just think of all that mayo on my knuckles as a SNACK! ROFLMBO


LOL Lori thanks, I do feel much better now (holding my warm brownie in other hand)!

Oh yeah are they putting less mascara in those bottles now also? It sure seems so and since we can't see inside I bet there is 1/2 teaspoon in there for $5.00!

And how about those stupid nail polish bottles that the little tube that holds the brush doesn't go all the way to the bottom of the bottle! WHY not! I paid for that stuff down there and I want to use it, not dump it out on my nails or throw it away!

I am so feeling this. I get so frustrated when this happens and why is it always at a time when it isn't convenient or you don't have ax extra container of stuff?

Nail polish... some times you have to think of it more like paint... pour it out on to a pallet and use it that way... if you want to get it all out... personaly I gave up on the nails... right after the kids came. Sigh.... they use to be soo prity
