Abstract
The present invention provides a system for approximating the contents of a dispensing container, the system comprising: a dispensing container comprising a vessel, the vessel having: a formation and/or a discreet element in or on the vessel which causes the centre of gravity of liquid contents of the vessel to be positioned differently, when oriented in a lain-on side attitude, from its notional position, in the absence of the formation and/or discreet element, and an indicator configured to indicate a change of the liquid contents of the vessel; a gauge, separate to the dispensing container, configured to be co-operable with the indicator of the dispensing container, the gauge comprising an interface between the gauge and the dispensing container and a scale which, in co-operation with the indicator of the dispensing container, signifies to a user the approximate liquid contents of the vessel.
