Small storage bottles for toiletries

For some time now we've been looking for some small storage bottles for carrying shampoo and conditioner on the morning trip to the showers but without success.

Yesterday on a trip to IKEA (yawn!), Mrs C found these four x 100ml bottles for £1. The pencil is there for scale but they measure 4.5" (110mm) x 1.25" (32mm) x 1.75" (45mm) so will easily fit in a toilet bag.

The idea is that we'll keep the original shampoo and conditioner bottles in the caravan and decant the contents as required.

Thanks, good idea Brian, but from the 2nd point and our point of view it's just another bunch of things to store and use when we remember.

Having on a number of occasions got into the shower only to discover that I've left the big bottles of shampoo and/or conditioner in the van, one of each of the small ones will reside permanently in our toiletry bags so it can't happen again.

Good idea those little bottles. We don't use the IKEA versions simply because we have never thought of looking at that source for them but instead obtain more or less the same thing from our local drug store. Now that one is no longer able to take over certain quantities of liquids and gels etc onboard aircraft shops have begun selling this type of stuff and the product I picked up from the drug store has four of these 100ml bottles (clear) in addition to 2 small clear dishes which the OH finds ideal for decanting a quantity of face/hand cream into. The entire set of six comes in a clear plastic wallet and although I can't remember the price costs almost next to nothing.

If I had done that I'd be worried I was getting old

I have 3 small Fairy liquid bottles which were given out years ago which we use for Fairy liquid, other detergents are available

Must be great minds thinking alike. Just been to Ikea today, the sale has started. Saw this little set of bottles and thought "Yup, thats just what we need". So we bought them, plus solar lights, pillows, pan stand etc. Didn't actually need anything when we went, just like Ikea and went to see what was in the sale!
