Do you add water to anything to make it stretch?

The post about adding water to the 100% juice got me thinking about this.

Is there anything (food, H&B, etc) that you dilute or add water to for more product?

I have added water to:
~shampoo
~conditioner
~dishwashing soap
~laundry soap
~spaghetti sauce (to get the rest out of the jar)

There might be others, but that's all I can think of right now.

How funny you should ask this lol.
Just making dinner & dessert I did this quite a bit!

Last of the olive oil (HOT water to get the last little swish)
Last of the vanilla extract
Last of the spaghetti sauce

And earlier today in the shower:
-conditioner
-facial cleanser

I also do it with:
-dish detergent
-fabric softener (when I buy it)
-shampoo
-bubble bath
-laundry soap (when I buy liquid)

I don't do it with laundry detergent or my own body wash/shampoo (I just use less,) but I do water down DH's shampoo sometimes. He has VERY short hair- I hav easily 20 times as much hair on my head as e does, yet he can go through a bottle of shampoo as quick as me or quicker.

I also water down things that come out of a pump, like hand soap, since one pump will always give you the same volume. I can just do a half-pump, but other people around here might not.

I do try to leave the things so they still have some viscousity to them- I don' want them runny like water.
