My fiance and I were SOLD on this idea. Sunday we found some GREAT vintage bottles which are begging to be used RIGHT away! While hunting we also found a seltzer bottle. Practically salivating at our amazing find we became weary when the lid/pump top didn't unscrew off. It turns Left and Right but doesn't become loose enough to remove. After deliberating we decided to ask our friends at AT for advice on how to remove the top (if it's possible) before we forked over the cash. May we have suggestions/advice?

I was able to shave 80 bucks off my winter utilities by keeping the heat @ 55 which i will warn you in the dead of Dec (in KS at least) was HARD! those mornings i hated leaving my heated blanket (highly recommended) or stepping out of the hot shower back into the main apartment...ouch! i recommend lots of blankets every where, hot drinks, warm dinners. I rigged EVERYTHING to a power srtip so at night or when i left for the day all i had to do was flip a switch and unplug one item not them all. I also used a toaster oven which kept me from using the power greedy gas oven. Installing a dimmer switch helped but didn't work with the new Green bulbs. I also went without tv or cable. on really cold nights...i spent time at the coffee shop down the street until they closed for the free heat :) Good Luck!!! I'm sure you'll have numerous stories to share!
