For some time now, I've been cutting open packaging to use up every last bit of the product instead of throwing it away. If I save, say, 1.2 grams in this way, that's "nothing". However, if 1 billion people did the same, that would be the weight of 1000 small cars! (I hope I've calculated correctly?!) Note on the photo: After cutting it open, I fiddle around with the bottom part a bit. Maybe the MIGROS packaging developers could invent a cutting aid or whatever?
I do that too. And I'm always amazed at how much is still in there. I always cut the bottles open in a very adventurous way with a box cutter, lucky that I still have all my fingers. I would actually like to see a "predetermined breaking point" in the bottle. Simply a groove that is slightly thinner than the rest, where you can then cut through better.

Hi Yoliboli Nice to have found a kindred spirit through Migipedia! Please take care of your fingers!
Yes, I find that annoying too. With the PH Balance light body lotion in the pump dispenser, for example, the rest doesn't come out and you can't cut it open. I've already seen that Nivea has new tubes that you can press on and roll up (Natural Balance https://www.nivea.ch/de-ch/neu-von-nivea/natural-balance-body-lotion). Perhaps Migros could package their body lotions in a similar way in future? I would very much welcome it for PH Balance instead of the practical but unecological and uneconomical pump dispensers and the rather unhygienic jars.

Well, you could probably even cut it open with a box cutter. Maybe that's intentional, after all Migros also runs a pharmacy. I can't understand this packaging either, which is why I rarely buy this really good lotion. The ph-balance shower soap in the refill pack, on the other hand, has been my standard for ages and I would immediately make the lotion my standard if the packaging were the same.
I do that too. The last time with the Mister Rice pack where the spout could easily be better placed.

Hello Nitram52, hello Yoliboli, hello community, thank you very much for your contributions. We are sorry that it is difficult to use the lotion without residue. We are always open to suggestions for improvement. That is why those responsible for this area would like to take a closer look at the Twilight packaging format mentioned above. Our specialist department may be able to initiate optimizations that make it easier to empty the packaging completely. We hope our efforts are in your interest. Kind regards, Tabea
