Why Isn't This Standard - Deodorant

You use deodorant every day.  You probably have to buy it way too often.  Ever run out of it?  Ever think you should "stock up" on it because you use it all the time?  If you are a guy then the answer is "yep".
You shouldn't be buying anything in bulk - if you do then your VW beetle probably needs washing.  A stick of deodorant is usually a MAXIMUM of 4oz which fills up maybe half of the container. WHY?  It would seem the manufacturers are screwing over customers by not maximizing their containers.  They are already making full size containers - why not fill them.  Every guy would surely pay more per ounce for a larger amount of deodorant.  News to big companies - America will pay to be lazy and not have to go to the store more often.  On top of all that, the other positives are you can get some of the go-green lady-men in on it by advertising it as a more environmentally friendly option since there will be less trash.

If I were a big deodorant company (on a side note I bet their offices smell awful - you might like the smell right when you go in but for 8 hours a day for your whole life - holy shit) I would use other huge companies' market research (Dr. Pepper 10) and make a man deodorant.  If anything EVERY guy is getting this for Christmas, who doesn't think a giant deodorant stick is awesome?  You cannot feel like more of a man than getting ready to bird dog chicks by lubing up your pits with a pound of deodorant.

Sounds like a good idea if only I could come up with a name?  Man-odorant!  Pound-odorant!  Done.  You are welcome Old Spice, Degree, Right Guard, etc.

  1. Instead of VW Beetle, I might have said any type of Saturn. Also, I would buy your pound of man-odorant.
