The dog is the only one who gets two-ways in our house. Are yours blue, too? Want an idea of the gouge humans take over their pets?
On ours that match distributor bottles, there are two lids. I just break the outer sharp edged lid. The inner one is much more comfortable.

I save it all for painting, epoxy, screws, and so on. I cut the plastic soda bottles at the bottom too for mixing small amounts of paint in or using clear coat for brushing and thinning.
Plastic lids and the container from Coolwhip is great. I've heard that pouring the milk in a viagra bottle and shaking it before adding it to the pancake batter will make the pancakes rise a lot.

That's funny right there... Really good... I'd try it, but never had a prescription.
I do save the little tubs that the individual applesauce servings come in. Nice thick plastic. Great for all sorts of things, dyes, stains, danish oil: use em then toss em.

I have saved all kinds of colors of plastic tops to use in pen making to get some color and difference in them. I got tired of saving them and were nice for a while but interest dropped off.
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.
