Refilling your aftershave bottles

Buy a condiment bottle from Bed Bath and Beyond (like they put ketchup in at restaraunts), fill the condiment bottle and squeeze it into the glass bottle.
No spillage, no mess and very quick.

Actually we just touched on this. I use a plastic Witch Hazel plastic bottle with screw off lid but a tiny spout on it. Works like a charm.
I got a really small SS funnel at a Hardware Store and it works great! But the Mustard squeeze bottle would be even better. I'll pick up one ASAP!
I kept my empty Thayer's bottle because of this. Worked like a charm!
That is the same one I have but yesterday couldn't come up with the name momentarily. Makes it easy and nearly impossible to spill.
Glass of any sort is better than plastic IMHO.
the ketchup bottle is a great idea.

Took apart a "give away" ball point, attached to a small funnel with duct tape. Works fine.
I hand my wife an eye dropper and tell her to go at it. 
I use those bulbs that come with the earwax remover liquids, works pretty well.
Yea, I got a 10 ml dropper that I use, it takes forever!
BTW, there are alot of rednecks on B&B

15 ml syringe, pull out the plunger and needle and use it as a funnel. I assume you are pouring from a plastic bottle so you just use the syringe as a funnel. If you have one a 50ml syringe would be quicker. I live on a farm and have syringes lying around.(not a druggy)
I found a cheap "flavor" injector at the grocery store that works great. Looks like a syringe but has a thin long needle that fits in the smallest AS bottle opening. It can be used like a syringe or a funnel for transferring AS.
Syringes are great for this!
great idea!
I picked up a small plastic funnel at Pier 1. Works great. I think is was for filling oil lamps.

How long does it take you to dislodge it?I hand my wife an eye dropper and tell her to go at it.
Dislodge it? You are supposed to attempt that? I leave it there, doesn't even really bother me anymore.
Where is a good place to get CHEAP but classic glass bottles for this purpose? Inquiring minds wish to know! 
I just did some transferring today in fact.... I used an empty witch hazel bottle with a squeeze top lid... Worked great. And I expect any plastic squeeze type bottle and cap will work fine.
Looks so much better in the old Avon Bottels than the plastic AV bottles. Now my cheap American stuff is as nice looking as my expensive English and Italian stuff.
