For the last week or two I've been gradually running low on deodorant and intending to buy deodorant, and now I'm absolutely completely out of deodorant and still haven't bought deodorant, because the time most convenient to buying deodorant, when I'm near shops that are open, is after I've finished work, which is when I smell exactly like someone who's been doing hard physical work for five hours in a polyester uniform shirt, deodorant or not. I feel some aversion to going into a shop to buy deodorant while smelling bad. It just doesn't seem like the done thing, to go around buying deodorant because you need it; I should appear to be buying deodorant I don't need so that I can decorate my dressing table with the bottle while being fresh as a daisy all day long with no outside assistance.

Ah well. Baking soda has many uses.

But remember that that time you go into a shop being slightly smelly? You only have to do that once. ;)

Also, if you're self-conscious about it but nobody else has said anything, that's almost a guarantee that it's not as bad as you think.

I don't know why I said 'remember', it hasn't happened yet. :P

Yeah. And they probably have worse-smelling people coming in all day.

I dunno, I think one would have to smell pretty bad and know people reasonably well before anyone would say anything. Really good friends, if I asked them -- or family, who feel no obligation to be polite.

I generally buy a three-pack from Amazon.com whenever I'm getting low & have enough other goodies saved in my cart to get free shipping. In CyberSpace no one can smell your armpits!

You're so smart :o) The internet will probably send me some deodorant if I ask it!

The Internet loves consumers! :^)

LOL!
Which reminds me...I must buy a deodorant!!!:-)

Hahaha, never thought of being self conscious about buying deodorant. XD
