There is always about 1/4 lotion remaining in my giant size bottles. Anyone have idea's how to retrieve? I have discarded the original caps and only have the pumps which prevent turning upside down. Even thought about sawing the bottle in half and transfer to another container. Hope I don't sound stupid!!

lol you don't sound stupid. sawing off the bottom and transfering it to a smaller bottle sounds good ! just make sure you use a little funnel when pouring

Thanks Roxxy for your reply.

I always cut my lotion tubes in half when there is a tiny amount remaining. In this case, you do not transfer but rather use up quickly (two days).

See, I am stupid, never thought about leaving in original bottle! Thanks--gonna go look for my sharpest knife.

I use V33116 to use on Wen bottles and others. Sometimes they leak a little, but still better than wastinga lot of product. Good luck!

I do the same thing with anything thick like hand lotion that won't come out of a bottle or tube. I put a piece of plastic wrap on top and a rubber band around the container to keep the ingredients from drying out until I finish whatever is left.

I don't cut anything, I just take the bottle top off and turn it upside down into a funnel inserted into a smaller bottle or a new bottle of the same scent. Push that up against a wall to so it doesn't fall over and walk away while gravity does the rest.

To get the rest of lotion (or anything out of those large pumper containers). I remember seeing a special "gadget" on one of the food shows that holds these bottles upside down. Maybe someone knows the item number.
