Oh yeah! Upside down ketchup bottles in the fridge and upside down dishwasher and laundry detergent bottles all the time! I'm a big "tapper" too. Gotta get out that last little bit!

We have propped bottles as well. I cut the toothpaste tubes and lotion bottles. Also, my Mom buys the generic ketchup and fills the Heinz bottles since that is all my Dad likes .... he hasn't caught on.

I've been buying the ketcup bottles that are already "upside down" as a normal state.

But that's GREAT about your mom!
