Be especially safe with your old prescription bottles. Be sure and mark through the name of person and drug name with a marker before putting in trash as some people would try to get it filled, especially if it is for a pain pill. God Bless you and stay safe!
To Zig thanks for the idea about the bottle and the plastic bags. I have an autistic daughter who is still not potty trained and me I carry about everything I can think of in my bag. I love the ideal real cool too Thanks again
I think a better way is to peel or soak the labels off, cut them up (as suggested by Jilson) and then RECYCLE the plastic bottle. This is both safe for others and good for the environment:-)
This is good advice. No sense in letting personal info get into the wrong hands.
All of our prescription bottles have easy to pull off sticky labels. I pull them off, tear up and pitch. I then keep some of the bottles to use for various purposes and save up the rest to give to a local Vet. Animal hospitals are grateful to get them to use for pet meds and then they don't have to buy them.
If you put water in the prescription bottles then soak them in water dor a few hours. The name of the person and other info should come of easily.
After all the info is off you can cram 2-3 plastic grocery bags in one and give it to someone who has a baby. That way they can put the bottle in their diaper bag and always have a plastic bag to dispose of dirty diapers. Zig
