Post by: prome05 on March 24, 2011, 11:29:03 AM
Has anyone ever "used up" a stick before losing it? I've never been close.

Story:

A couple months ago Mrs. _33 ran out of this chapstick she uses only before bed. It was the in like one of those Carmex tubs but it wasn't Carmex. Anyway, she told me she was a little sad because she had been using it for over ten years. Since she was 15 or something.  :horrorsurprise:

I go through complete Burt's Bees pomegranate tubes(?) all the time. I've tried to ween myself off, but can't. Hate all the chemically based ones.

Carmex tubes always become a casualty of the washing machine/dryer.

Incredibly dry in CO, but I just drink more water and have a humidifier on my heater. No need for chapstick.

I say that I use about 5-7 tubes a year.  Must be on me at all times and I get rough ridin' pissed if I can't find it  :chainsaw: :chainsaw: :chainsaw: :chainsaw: .  An immediate stop is needed if I have somehow left the house without (rarely happens).  I had a dood I used to work with go through a tube of "the other kind, blistex???" every week.  It was freaking incredible.  He would smash it on his face all day long.  I didn't think it was even possible to burn through a tube in a week, but he did it.
