#4. Flip-It! Cap – Bottle Emptying Kit

You want to know what’s frustrating? When you’re trying to get that shampoo out of the bottle, and you know there’s a ton left… but it’s just not coming out.

And then you unscrew the pump and start shaking it and PLOP… way too much shampoo.

The struggle is REAL and we all know it. But not with a Flip-it Cap!

This handy lid replacement takes ALL your bottles, turns them upside down and creates a reality where you can grab every last drop of whatever you want.

No more shaking or pounding. You just squeeze it out.

Check out their video to see how it works.

Ahhh, that was satisfying.

Here’s one more reason Flip-It is awesome: the environment. See, when you throw bottles away with product still left in it… they’re not easy to recycle. In fact, they often don’t get recycled at all. If you use a Flip-It, you get all of it out, which means they’re much more likely to get recycled.

So you’re helping make the world get greener. Win win!

It’s removable and re-freezable, so when you roll and stretch out your foot, you’re also getting cold treatment to help with healing.

All you runners out there know what I’m talking about. Take a look at how the product works.

Yeah, it’s that simple. Sometimes things don’t need to be complicated. No batteries, and only one moving part.

Another great thing about this is it’s yet another one of those products everybody can use because we ALL get foot pain at least sometime in our lives.
