Small Portions of Drink Mix

I shop at the Dollar Tree like some people shop for food. It's the only way I can buy anything new on my fixed income. There is also, at any given time, at least 60 drink mix packages from various brands in my "drink drawer". I get most of these there, too. It's so much cheaper than soda and has no carbonation.

I bought 6 of these bigger drink containers and loved that two packets fit into it perfectly. But, something happened to my thumbs over the 57 years I have been crocheting. They got weak. While these bottles are great, they are 9+ inches around. Also, I have a tendency to drink one in about an hour.

So, while I love a little coffee with my creamer, I had to stop that, too. This left me with these amazing smaller bottles. They have a deeper screw on lid than most, and fit perfectly in my fridge door. When I fill a larger one, I can mix it evenly and pour it into three little ones.

Now before anyone says I shouldn't be drinking out of these, I revolve them every 2 months and use them just for frozen containers for picnics and such. They stay frozen longer and don't dilute or get messy as they thaw. If you want to control the sweat factor, just put them into a zipper bag with a paper towel and then pop them right back in the freezer.

So, now I grab one an hour and spread the value out times 3. It's a win win for me and I hope they will help you, too.

N-JOY!
