I buy milk in gallons, but when I get it home, I immediately repackage it in empty spring water bottles. That way, the milk stays in the refrigerator until it's ready to be consumed, it's less likely to be spilled, I eliminate washing a glass, it's easily reclosed if I decide not to drink it all at once, and it can be taken with me if I jump in the car.

I do the same thing with orange juice.

When I make a sauce in the kitchen, I put the leftovers in a plastic springwater bottle for refrigeration.

I put both halite and sharp sand in plastic springwater bottles, and keep them in the trunk. A bag, once opened, ends up spreading its contents all over the trunk, but the bottles contain it - and instead of trying to spread it for traction with my hands, I stay clean by spreading it directly from the bottle.

I refill a bottle with sudsy water and keep it in the car. If I need to change a tire, I can wash my hands afterwards.

As a diabetic, after using a lancet or a syringe, I deposit it into a spring water bottle, for safe disposal of medical "sharps".

When pouring concrete, I dump surplus into a plastic bottle, such as laundry detergent comes in, for use as a weight. The bottles have handles, which makes it easy to tie a rope to.

When cleaning the french fryer, I dump the waste oil into plastic bottles for disposal, rather than dumping it down the drain and polluting the river.

I buy shampoo and conditioner in gallons, which is economical but inconvenient. I repackage them in spring water bottles which are handy.

I reuse them for water, too. It's only 69c to buy a gallon jug of spring water, while the little bottles cost much more.

Toss a package of birthday cake candles in one, and some matches, before you go camping. They'll stay dry in there. Those itty-bitty birthday cake candles burn long enough that they get kindling started.

If you're going on a picnic where alcoholic beverages aren't allowed, but it's a romantic thing with your wife, pour one or two springwater bottles full of wine, and fill some others with different colors of KoolAid. If an officer walks past, grab a KoolAid out of the ice chest, and toss it to him, volunteering that he looks hot and thirsty.

That's more than 10, but there are *so* many uses for spring water bottles, I had trouble stopping....

Recycling is better than reusing.

There is not much use for , lets say a plastic bottle from a water bottle you just drank.
