The saver bottle is primarily intended to improve on existing bottle designs for storing and dispensing small quantities of fluid, such as liquid soap, shampoo, sunscreen, or similar fluids. The existing bottle designs used for these fluids are often unable to disgorge all of their liquid contents during normal use and leave some measure of their contents as a residue at the bottom of the bottle, which is wasteful and inefficient. The saver bottle is adapted to waste less of its liquid contents, and may include a sump, a sloped internal lower surface, a pumping mechanism accessible from the outside of the bottle, and a suction straw. The suction straw may terminate in a flared suction bell, and may extend into the sump. The sloped internal lower surface may be sized to maximize the internal volume of the bottle while still ensuring that any liquids the bottle is intended to house may freely drain into the sump at the bottom of the bottle.

1. A container for dispensing fluid, comprising: a bottle having a generally flat exterior base, a bottle sidewall comprised of at least one layer, and an internal lower surface that is substantially and nonuniformly sloped, wherein the underside of the bottle has an anti-slip surface;the bottle additionally having a sump formed in the approximate center of the internal lower surface of the bottle and substantially surrounded by sloped portions of the internal lower surface, wherein the sloped portions of the internal lower surface are inward-sloping and direct the content of the bottle into the sump, and wherein the diameter of the sump is at ⅜″ and the depth of the sump is ½″ and an area between the internal lower surface of the bottle and sloped portions of the internal lower surface is hollow;the bottle additionally having a substantially rounded interface between the internal lower surface of the bottle and the sidewalls of the sump;a pumping mechanism extending from the top of the bottle; anda pair of suction straws disposed in the sump, a first suction straw having a first length and a flared terminus, a second suction straw having a length shorter than the first section straw and a round terminus, the first suction straw and the second suction straw further joining at a point between the pump and the terminus of the first suction straw and the second suction straw to provide a mixing of contents drawn into the straws by action of the pump. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the bottle sidewall has an approximately elliptically cylindrical shape. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the bottle sidewall has an approximately ovoid shape. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the bottle sidewall has a bottleneck-like taper that reduces the outer diameter of the bottle between the lower portion below the bottleneck and the upper portion above the bottleneck. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the bottle sidewall has an approximately rectangular prismatic shape. 6. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the terminus of the first suction straw and the second suction straw are sized to fit within the sump. 7. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the underside of the bottle has a plurality of support legs located near the outer perimeter of the generally flat support base. 8. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the internal lower surface of the bottle blends with the shape of the bottle sidewall. 9. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the space between the internal lower surface of the bottle and the exterior base of the bottle is hollow. 10. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the sidewalls of the sump are inward-sloping. 11. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the sump is cylindrical. 12. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the sump is hemispherical. 13. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the bottle sidewall comprises a plurality of layers with different material compositions. 14. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the bottle sidewall has at least one raised surface feature. 15. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the internal lower surface of the bottle is substantially concave.
