Are You Wasting Money on Toothpaste??

No, I'm not telling you to stop using toothpaste, I'm asking if you might be wasting the toothpaste still in the tube? You are probably shaking you head, telling yourself that you have squeezed the living daylights out of the tube and there's nothing left, but try my little trick just to see how much you have been throwing away.

Take a pair of scissors with you to the bathroom and snip away about a half inch from the bottom of the tube. You are going to be amazed at how much toothpaste is still in that little section. You will be brushing your teeth with that section of the tube for a few days to come... depending on how much toothpaste you use.

Anyway, after you have exhausted every little drop of paste from the tube, snip off another half inch and then keep working your way up to the top. You are going to kick yourself when you realize just how much toothpaste you have been throwing in the garbage. That's certainly how I felt!

Now I'm a whole lot smarter!!
