Last night I went out to dinner with a friend.
I realized 4 minutes from the restaurant that I had forgotten to put on deodorant.
It was 85 degrees and I knew we were going to eat outside.
Plus, I was wearing a sleeveless shirt.
This was potentially a ripe situation.
I hunted around the car.
All I found was a pack of Altoids.
Apparently licking Altoids and rubbing them in your pits works quite well as a deodorant replacement.
In case you were wondering.
Nice. Out-of-the-box thinking such as that will continue to serve you well in the future. 🙂
No, actually, they were in the box 🙂
i’m confused. you keep your deodorant in your house and not in the car? hmmm, where do you keep your brush? my kids only have their brushes in the car because they only seem to comb their hair when they get to the car. now brushing our teeth we are kind of stuck doing at home….. well, i will pass this tip along though. not caring for altoids, i wonder how cough drops and werther’s originals work…..
LOL!! That is too funny, I would have never thought about that! Good for you 😉
That’s hilarious and something I will remember if ever in a bind 😉
Minty fresh…wasn’t it sticky?
Ahhhh. Now every time I grab a an Altoid this is what I’m going to think of…
Buwahahahahaaha.
And now I will share a little secret of my own. I very rarely wear deodorant. It started when I quit my job to stay home full time with the kiddos – not out of a conscious decision, just lack of energy or caring. I’ve actually found that if I use it to go out (deodorant falls into the ‘special occasion’ category these days), then the following days after wearing it, I need it, opposed to when I haven’t worn it in weeks. It’s a conspiracy I tell ya.
Hilarious!!! And good to know!
Stopping by from MMILE
Hahaha this was funny!! Whatever works right?
good to know! 😛
You rock! Way to improvise! You’re a regular suburban McGuyver!
I may never look at a box of Altoids the same way again… HA!
I used to live near the Big D. Arlington to be exact. Still waiting to come back. I miss it.
Thanks for linking up at my place today for Miss Elaine-ous Monday – hope you’ll continue to join me! 🙂
