Since Kroger stopped tripling their coupons, I'm not getting hand soap for free, so I needed to find an inexpensive alternative.
1. Get a regular refill bottle of hand soap and empty foaming hand wash dispensers.
2. Fill a foaming hand soap container with an inch of soap.
3. Add tap water slowly to the container.
'
4. Screw the pump back on and slowly... SLOWLY....flip the container every which way. Up. Down, Spin to the left. Spin to the Right. Flip forwards. Flip backwards. Resist the urge to shake. Yay!!! Foaming Hand Wash!
Let's Do the Math:
The refill was like $3.50 (I think.)
A new bottle of foaming hand wash is $1.49.
There's 64 ounces in the refill bottle.
I put around 2 ounces of soap in the foaming hand wash bottle.
That's 32 bottles of foaming hand wash per refill bottle.
If I were to buy 32 bottles of foaming hand wash it would cost $47.68. Not including tax and assuming each bottle is $1.49.
The cost to make 32 bottles of foaming hand wash using refill soap is $0.11. Yeah 11 cents! $3.50 for 32 bottles of foaming hand wash.
Do I need to go further?
Seriously. Does it get any easier than that?
Just in case you aren't convinced.....
Think about how many empty bottles of foaming hand wash you aren't throwing into a landfill every week, month, year, lifetime....That's a lot of bottles.
Recycle your refill bottle.
That's all for now! Come back next week for a new money saving tip!
