I'm using Roundup with a battery sprayer to tackle some weeds, but I'm running into an issue. I'm nearing the end of the bottle, and there's still a good amount of liquid left, but my sprayer isn't getting any out, even though it's working fine otherwise. I've tilted the bottle every which way, but nothing seems to help. Is there a way to get it all out, or do these bottles have a short tube on purpose to waste some of the product?

Just a heads up, though—some people might say to avoid Roundup altogether because of health concerns. It might be worth considering other options if you’re worried about it being carcinogenic. Stay safe while gardening!
I feel your pain! When I'm in that situation with other liquids, I just add some water to the bottle, shake it up, and transfer it to another sprayer. This mixes the last bit better so you can use it all without losing any. It's not Roundup specific, but it definitely works for me!
I've had a similar issue! One handy trick is to pour the remaining liquid into another container, like a spray bottle. You won’t get every drop, but it can help you save more of it. Just keep in mind it's only a few pennies worth at the end of the day. No need to let it go to waste!
