Two blogs in one week? What?! Madness!!!
For those of you who never read my Facebook note about toothpaste (yes, I write about fantastic and interesting things), I use Listerine brand. They make a gel toothpaste that is incredibly strong and leaves my breath feeling minty fresh for hours. I don't really like other brands because my breath doesn't feel clean when I'm done brushing. Granted, it has always been a bit more expensive to stick with the Listerine brand, but I can scrimp and save in other areas of my budget--I refuse to compromise my oral hygiene. I can shop for clothes in thrift shops, buy generic brand food, and only buy used dvds... but I am not willing to negotiate on my toothpaste preference. I spent too many years in braces, expanders, rubber bands, headgear (yes, headgear; no, there are no photos), and a retainer to allow my teeth look anything short of spectacular.
But there is a problem. I think they may have discontinued Listerine brand toothpaste. It is no longer available in grocery stores or Walgreens. (And let's face it, if Walgreens doesn't have it, what hope is there?!)
It doesn't exist for cheaper than $4 online. I am extremely disheartened by this discovery.

I am the same way with deodorant and toilet paper. It's ok to skimp on frozen veggies and generic cheese, but when we're talking about personal hygiene I need the good stuff.
You should track down the toothpaste and buy it in mass quantities. Then get some turtles.
I'm pretty sure that needs to be my plan of action. I just can't believe it's come to this. Buying toothpaste in bulk... online.
