But without water....what good is soap?
Use it to stop squeky drawers!
**Heres how it works: The soap is collected, shredded, run through machines that get rid of any residual bacteria another guest may have left, and then get shaped into new bars and packaged up. People get soap to wash their hands and possibly prevent the spread of common infectious diseases, and everyone wins.**
Gross! Recycled soap!
Phew! Now I can sleep well tonight....the world has been saved.
We’re just a nano second away from Marriot hotels buying their recycled soap back and using it for its customers.
BYOS, when you travel.
They’re the perfect size for cleaning out your butt crack.
Thank you for the mental image.
No problem. I’m always looking for tips and tricks to help with personal hygiene.
...and with all the black hairs they can knit hats to keep their heads warm.
Dont get the one with the pubic hair sticking out of it.
I always take the bars home... it never occurred to me to leave them behind to be thrown away. I figure I paid for that soap, I’m keeping it.
I do not have to buy much soap.
put the used hotel soap in the basement, and the mice will ea it and then they die. The field mice always get in the house so whenever I have to stay at a hotel I bring the soap bar back and lo and behold i get rid of the mice. This year i plan to fix the foundation so no more mice. Than I will just throw the hotel soap away in the trash
Soap, by definition, cleans itself.
Are you serious? Do field mice actually eat bar soap and die?
Thanks for the suggestion!
What about corn cobs?

Here’s one crucial - I said CRUCIAL! - tip.
You have to keep the cobs to be used in a bucket of water. You don’t even want to find out what happens with a dry one.
Be warned!
Soap kills mice? really?
I know that they do nibble on soap. Learned that one year when I went to grab soap stored in my linen closet. Now I store soap in a plastic container. I started joking that the mice in my house had the cleanest teeth and intestines.

Condition quilting needles. Also, run quilting thread over it to make it glide through fabric more smoothly.
Rub soap over the threads of wood screws before driving them. Cuts down on the effort required.
