Default bunny money saving tip number 2: Toothpaste

okay, so we already had the home job buzz cut thread... here. (i will be taking before and after pics btw :p)

and now i bring you yet another bunny money saving tip - and economically scaled, this is a good % of the purchase price of another bunny or performance parts for (who am i kidding, replacement parts to repair!) your existing bunny wip, if done consistently throughout an entire year!

i give you... the Toothpaste Piggy Bank!

There's money in that thar toothpaste tube you're throwing out before it's completely spent!!:p:laugh:

The way i figure it, a good tube of toothpaste goes for what... like $2 these days... and should last the average person, using 2-3times/day, what - about a month? well, let's say you can squeeze an extra 3 days out of each tube with it with this "mod"... let's run the numbers:

normal use = 12 tubes/year at $2 = $24

modified use = 1 tube per 33 days, = 365/33 = $11.06 tubes/year - let's say 11 even, for arguements sake.:p

That's a $2 annual savings!!!

Just think of the junkyard possibilities you could score for $2!!!:laugh:

anyways, here's a pic for you "how to" visual type learners of my Toothpaste Waste reduction mod:




no need to spend that first year's savings on a knife either... i just simply bit this fucker open with the teeth i've been keeping clean! then ripped 'er good, and let my toothbrush penetrate 'er niiiiice and deep to make sure i hit the p-spot. (paste) :laugh:

you too can do this!! anyone can!! it's just THAT easy folks!:p
