Re-use

What else do you use an empty Cointreau bottle for?

Our nearby farm shop sells local rape seed oil from bulk containers.  We used to get them to put our oil in 1litre gin bottles - we had two on the go, so that we could take our time over refilling one.  But when we were preparing for imminent removal in March, as we emptied one, we didn't refill it - instead we washed it out and added it to the recycling.

And then the second one ran out - and again, we washed the bottle out, and recycled it.

Since then we've been using up some olive oil we had in the pantry.  But that is now getting low, and we still don't have a date for removal, so we needed to find a container to buy some oil - step forward the Cointreau bottle.  I had it filled whilst at the farm shop today.
