Reuse Hand Pumps

I love to pick up the pump hand cleansers when I find them on sale, but I hate to throw them out. I reuse them for simple things like placing dish washing liquid in them. It is a nice container to place at my kitchen sink when I need some instant dish washing liquid for a quick wash. They are also good for putting shampoo in near the bath tub, or to use for hand cream and body cream. They work well in the laundry area for a small amount of clothes soap when you need just a dab.

I have baby oil in one. Are they food grade containers? Be careful to check this before putting food in them. I do have mouthwash/peroxide mix in one also. It takes 8 squirts to fill the little cup!

I also reuse handpumps for in the fridge. Lemon/lime juice, cooking oil, when you just want that dab in your food.
