Bottle Top
We typically buy our pop in cans, its cheaper and easier to store. But both TBG and I usually only drink 1/2 the can, which results in alot of flat pop and alot of waste. Sound familiar?
On a recent forage to Bed Bath and Beyond I discovered Bottle Tops: plastic, reusable snap-on lids that convert your can into a bottle! I bought 12 for $19.99, less the 20% BBB discount: cheaper than buying it on the internet.
Normally I wouldn’t pick something like this up without having even heard of it (I never saw it on TV) but we had been throwing away alot of flat pop that week, so what the heck! When I brought it home, TBG opened a can of pop, drank half, clicked on the Bottle Top, and stashed it in the fridge. A few hours later, he retrieved the can, and drank it all. Voila: it worked.
The only minor problem was removing the lid: turns out its easiest to crunch the sides of the can a bit before removing the lid, then just wash or throw in the dishwasher, ready to use next time. There were 12 Bottle Tops in a package with assorted colors, so its easy to identify your can.
Added bonus: I don’t like drinking from the can, this gadget was easy to drink from.

Why don’t you share a can, if you both only drink 1/2? LOL
In response to Carla, there are THREE adults living in our household and we each drink a different favorite. Haven’t seen these, where can they be purchased.
I agree QM: we don’t drink the same pop, so we have to buy 2 kinds: diet pepsi and diet 7up: the caffeine issue. You can buy the bottle tops at Bed Bath and Beyond, and I’m guessing Walgreens too, though I haven’t seen them there.
Target has them as well…I believe a package of 6 for $10.
