Many of us look to re-use plastic items that normally end up in the trash. This is a favorite of mine.

I like to use the top part of a gallon jug as a scoop.
I find the scoop handy for potting soil, bird seed and cat litter.

It is very easy to pour from the scoop.

I have a couple of bird feeders that a friend made for me. The filler neck is small.

The funnel comes in handy with the small filler neck.
