That sounds yummy! I've never made homemade syrup before but could see how the sports-top bottle could be great for getting just enough but not too much syrup on pancakes, waffles, etc.
Great! When I started looking to find ideas to supplement what I was already doing, I realized how handy packing stuff in a bottle could be -- contents could be kept dry (and easy to find) plus there'd have an extra bottle around if needed. Hope these help on your next trip.
I went on a week-long winter hike in high school, and the adults leading the trip would always boil a pot of water before bedtime. We'd fill up our water bottles with the hot water, seal them up tight, and put them at our feet in our sleeping bags to help warm up.
I use a sports bottle we got for free from an event as a syrup container. I make fresh homemade syrup and store it there, the pop cap is perfect for pouring!
I made my first batch of these this weekend using your basic flour mix recipe. The smell of the raw dough was not great - I think due to the soy flour - but the smell and taste after cooked was fine. Thanks!
I have two methods of "saving at the pump". First is to drive less. I am lucky enough (or foresighted enough) to live in a city with good public transportation, and also to live within walking distance of my job. Thus, most days, I don't need to drive to and from work.
The second thing I do is to use GasBuddy to find cheaper gas near to me. I won't drive out of my way for a few cents, but I will choose one nearby station over another when the first is cheaper. I have the GasBuddy app on my iDevice, so I can always find cheap gas near me.
My wife and I don't eat out much, so we do a lot less driving. We also spend a lot at our nearby grocery store where we earn gas rewards. Last month we got 90 cents off per gallon! I also make sure my car is well maintained. I just inflated the tires this week to make sure they are all at the proper PSIG. This ensures that my car is both safe and efficient.
I use one for winter clothes storage, I also have one that held a crib mattress and it fits under the bed really well. I keep my pregnancy clothes in it because I plan on using them again. This is a great list!
We (my wife and I) simply don't drive much. We consolidate our trips. We walk when we can. I have a company vehicle that I use for work, so if I can stop and pick up groceries in it on the way home, I do. Despite the fact that we took an 820 mile round-trip mini-vacation earlier this year, we've still only spend a total of $319 on gas so far in 2012.

As of today, I drive with ZipCar where I don't have to pay for gas. DH fills up his car at Costco where prices are always 5-10 cents cheaper.
I have olive oil in one of my extra pop-top style reusable bottles. I keep it next to the stove so when I need to oil a pan, I can give it a squirt!

I am a fan on facebook!
We shop at the same grocery store, and buy gas there as well. We get gas discounts for what we spend in groceries.
Some great creative ideas here. Found a couple I'll have to try on camping trips.
I run many of my errands on foot.
I think the hurdle is how to get earned income for our children as early as possible to make them eligible for the ROTH.
Bike as much as I can for errands close to home.

i go to costco for cheaper gas. and we've cut back on long-distance driving unless if we have to.

I can't seem to add a creditor!
I use my Giants reward card and don't drive more than necessary!
I love this idea. Never thought of it for a walk just for hiking. Can't wait to use it on the grandkids.
I moved to be very close to work. And now I'm saving up for a bike.
