OK, this is a trick that I used to use when I was really, really poor. You know how it is; your bar of
soap gets so small that it's really hard to use? Or if you happen to use Ivory, it always seems to break into unusable chunks prematurely?
Well, here's a solution. I salvaged one of my old cotton socks. Whenever a bar of soap got into one of the afore mentioned conditions, I would pop the chunks or slivers into the sock. In fact, I would do it early. Once the sock had a decent content, I would wash with it.
It seemed to be a great solution because it turned out to be soap and washcloth all in one. Of course, if you're handy with a needle and
thread, you could grind out something a little more elegant. I probably would have, but hey, I was just a wild young bachelor!
