... but I have two (certainly not dull) questions.

A) has anybody ever successfully refilled one of those Air Wick essential mist bottles? (Pic hopefully attached). As for some reason I'm loathe to buy another until I can guarantee that I can't fill it back up myself.

B) what do you think would happen if the National Lottery gave every single person in the UK a free lucky dip lottery ticket? I was thinking about it last night and wondered if it would cause chaos or if it would be a good thing for morale.

B) that all the winners would receive a prize fund of £1.68 each

@MunchBunchYoghurt at least they could all say they won the lottery jackpot before they died Grin

I have filled a similar air freshner with water and essential oil and it worked.

And so what lockhart?

Lol about the lottery. It couldn't work cos the prize fund us directly related to selling the tickets (boring answer) but it would be fun. Apart from people who are against it on principle.

@Lockheart the AIBU was AIBU to start one thread for two questions Grin.

I hadn't actually thought of the money spent on tickets funding the jackpot 😂 shows what I know about these things!

Sadly, I had to buy a new air wick refill. I'm still very interested to know if anybody has had success refilling one though! GrinGrin

Have you searched YouTube for the airwick bottle? I was loathed to buy detol soap refills for their auto dispenser thingys & found a video of how to get the cap off.

I had exactly the same problem! I ended up drilling a hole in the bottle, filling it and then putting two plasters over the hole Grin. We used it like that for well over a year, probably two. Companies often act as though they have people over a barrel when they sell products like that, so the price of refills is so ridiculously high. It hurts my pride to pay for refills! 😂
