4. I was surprised that almost all the places I stayed in the UK have dispensers

At the sink and in the shower - no wastage at all. The only problem - it's hard to read the darned script while wet and without my glasses. I'm sure I washed my hair with body wash and washed my body with shampoo more than once.

Quite a few places had a one product does it all so only one dispenser in the shower and probably the same product at the sink. I never noticed a problem with any of them - and they did not stink the way the fancy soaps and shampoos do at the fancier hotels do. I ended up shipping back my shampoo and most of my soap and never reacted to any of the products provided.

7. Yep, I think many are interchangeable and some are no good at all

I originally was worried and packed enough of my shampoo and soap to last the entire trip. In the past I have had reactions to various products - Ivory soap gives me hives, and most products for years had so much fragrance that I would sneeze everytime I lathered up.

Fortunately, most products I encountered were mild and most had little or no scent. I only used my own sff a few times when the scent showed up as soon as I walked in the door. Also fortunately, I am on a good antihistamine which has allowed me more ability to deal with products, both those I use and those used by others.

We have marginally decreased per capita use of a lot of resources, but I suspect plastics are still on the rise.

Nonetheless this is good news, and thanks for posting!
