Toothpaste

givememoney

Hope I am not duplicating what others have said.

All my life up until about six months back I have always bought toothpaste in a tube.

Then I went where I have never been before and bought it in a pump action container.

I have thought they were gimicky and probably more expensive....but no! What a revelation, no more horrible messy caps, now just clean squirts onto the brush and the things last for ages. I am not sure about the price, I think there isn't much in it but I wish I had started using them ages ago.

So for anyone else like me I'd say ditch the sqeezy tubes and mess and buy the pump action ones. They also stay upright in the cupboard.

They are good but at my local pound shop I can get the large tubes of Colgate for £1 which I think would be a lot cheaper.

the new colgate 'stay clean' caps have converted me from pumps. Mind I buy the new one for gums, forgot what it is called

I also love the pump dispensers amd the Aquafresh is a £1 in
poundland and sometimes I see colgate in there.

It's still not cheaper than buying the 29p one from Boots though is it?

I tried that too, though I wasn't very impressed by the new design. For me it seemed to get messier than the old style of tube cap.

Will buy the pump ones from now on!
Am sick to death of leaving post it notes in the bathroom asking various different members of the family to not leave the top off the toothpaste!!
