two starters from one white labs vile

[sharkuttack]

im making two different beers that require the same yeast strain. so to save money i bought one vile of white labs english ale yeast, i plan on making two one quart starters from it.
the beers im making are 4.8%abv and 5.1%abv
what do you guys think about this.
has anyone done this before?
