Shrinkflation at its finest.
No, this is just the dollar store travel version and they didn't want to resize the bottle. Normal deodorant is more like 3 oz. My spray sure deodorant is 6 oz
That being said it's still a rip off
This makes the most sense actually.
Totally misleading due to the bottle size. I've purchased travel overpriced deodorant and it was a half stick anyway.
But the point of a travel size isn’t the amount of product, but the size of the container. This is beyond stupid, before we even get into the unnecessary plastic waste
I bought a 2 pack of Gel Deodorant recently before flying, put them in my carry on with whatever else I brought. TSA didn't care to check the sizes as it went through the scanner. It might not matter as much as we are told.
I mean... it's not a liquid...
I always do solid deodorant. Never thought about that...
Gel is a liquid.
Gel is a thick liquid.
Gel is a thiquid.
Dayum girl you Thiquid.
Last I saw dynamite was made in gel form. Seems more pertinent than liquid in a way. I actually was going to leave them, my mother convinced me to leave their place and fly home with them. Said to myself I will just chuck them in the trash if they had a problem with it.
