I had been using Old Spice High Endurance for many years, I even recommended it when people made threads about which to use. Well when it was time to buy some more I decided to try Speed Stick, its a little cheaper, both say 24 hour protection, why not? I did a fresh install about 2 hours ago, did some yard work, low and behold, my pits had some minor stinky going. Back to Old Spice, that is my tip for the year.

deodorant is the best invention ever. can you imagine how bad people sunk 100 years ago and further? everywhere was the smell of moldy onion and sweat.

I can't believe you are concerned about deodorant being "cheaper". It's like $2-$3 for something that lasts weeks.

The one thing I've learned over the years is make sure you use DEODORANT. Not anti-perspirant bullshit.

I found that anti-perspirant actually made me sweat more than anything else - to the point where my armpit would be drenched by mid-day. I switched to Old spice deodorant and I hardly sweat - and if I do the deodorant masks the smell as it should.

I used to use antiperspirant until it made my pits itch. Now that I don't use it anymore I noticed that my shirts don't get messed up in the pit area anymore.

Deodorant is for suckers. Cultivate a nice noxious aroma and you get a wide berth in public places. The more you stink the bigger the buffer zone you receive in movie theaters and when waiting in line at the DMV. Even in France it can be helpful, you'll pass as a local and get better service from waiters in restaurants.

Maybe. But I'm in the habit of putting it on everyday so the cheaper stuff is more in line with my economic status.

It also just makes your body ooozing with pheromones. The ladies will come running for you ;)

Personally I use two fresh squeezed lemons!! Cut in half and proceed to rub on each arm pit!!!

I Believe it is double that price for Gillette deodorant at Target in the great state of Minnesota.

I like Secret Powder Fresh gel. been using it for ages. They don't make men's deoderant with a light baby powder scent so that is where one has to go to get the best smelling stuff these days. Survival of the fittest and all.

Absolutely...just over 100 years ago, more than 2/3 of the passengers on the Titanic totally sunk.

Degree Clinical or Dove Men care. My recommendations. Brace yourself when you see the price tag !

What do you get when you cross the Atlantic with the Titanic? About half way.
