Do you try to squeeze every last nurdle of toothpaste from the tube or is that too much work?

    I squeeze every last bit of toothpaste out of the tube.

    I am the same way.  I just found toothpaste in a plastic container that you can turn upside down to get the remaining last little bits. No more tubes for me.

    I thought that was a great idea until I realized that costs more than the regular tube of toothpaste.  How hard is it to flatten the tube as you go and get the last of it out the top?  It really isn't rocket science.

    Not done yet.  There's still one brushings worth in the screw top that the cap fits on.  You can get that out with a toothpick.  Furthermore, you can squeeze more to the top if you use the handle of your toothbrush like a rolling pin.

    I bought a gizmo that gets out every last drop - without effort.

    I use a little tube squeezer thing that does a really good job.  When it will not turn anymore I'm done with it.  No, I don't sweat a tad of toothpaste.

  • I just rinse with water, then mouthwash and pop my dentures in that soaked all night in bleach-water.

    And after minutes and minutes of searching for a gif, I see Beans beat me to it.

    I miss seeing him around here.

    I'll post the gif I found anyway. :)
