You can try your local dollar store or craft shops like Michaels

Try any Pharmacy...they should have travel bottles...small 2 or 4 oz bottles to take shampoo on travel with you....or like said before..a crafts store...

I got some at wal mart...4/1.00 here...with flip tops....but also seen them in drug stores .

Walmart's in the US have them in the travel section (by the toothpaste and stuff). I would assume it would be the same at Canadian Walmarts. I just bought about 12 of them today.

Becks, I have tried dollar store after dollar store and never see any bottles. I did find the Goody bottles in the pharmacy section of A&P and the four pack had two flip tops, one screw top and one pump style. The cap colours were either blue or teal btw. They were $3.99 for the set. Haven't seen anything at Walmart either, has anyone found bottles any cheaper here?

i have tried the beuty stores and they only have ones with no caps...the goody ones are as cheap as they get! you can buy one from rubber made which is pretty pricy and its 8ox ( 4.50) ...i think

I never had any success locating dispenser bottle on the retail side. I think the restaurant supply places will have them. I bought two dozen at usplastics.com for less than .75c each

I get 'em from the grocery store (dominion), they're for travel shampoo, etc. 2-6oz available, flip top. I put polishes and liquid waxes/sealants in 'em.

Picus - what do you use to get them from a bulk bottle into the 2-6oz ones. I used a funnel and sometimes the product is too thick/viscous for the funnel. I tried a couple other funnels, but seems to me like they put a coating on the funnel which does work well with some products.
Other stuff works really well, just difficulty with OP/OHC/FPII - stuff like that.

Heya - I just take the flip top off the small bottle and squeeze the polish/sealant/wax in. If it's a bulk bottle (1 gallon+) and doesn't have a squeeze top (so it's just an open top) I use one of my wifes small metal funnels. The metal works pretty well, you lose hardly any product.
