This happened just a couple of weeks ago.Is it cringe-worthy? I think so.
On Mondays, I go to the transfer station to take the trash, the cardboard, and the recycling. I threw the toothpaste in the trash and it has now left the premises.
I bought it online. It promised to be great. A nice looking tube of toothpaste, strawberry taste, some whitening effects. What could go wrong, right?
When it arrived, the shape of the toothpaste tube didn’t look like in the picture on the listing. We all know what a tube of toothpaste looks like. With some slight differences, they all look like a skinny-ish tube. Not this one. This one looked like an oversized deodorant stick. It looked exactly like that, just bigger.
No big deal I thought, let’s give this a try. That was easier said than done. The toothpaste would not come out of the thing. I thought that maybe I was doing something wrong, so I asked my husband to take a look.
My husband could not get the toothpaste to come out of it, either.
Eventually I got a little bit of toothpaste to come out but when I accidentally got some of it on my hand, I noticed that it was sticky like glue. That was the final straw. In the trash it went.
Remind me to not buy toothpaste online again.
