Discontinued Items- just for fun

I'm the queen of liking products which, when word gets out that I like them, they are quickly discontinued. I'm going to help my fellow Viewpointers out. If you like a new product, post and ask if I like it. If I haven't tried it or don't use it, you're home free. Feel confident purchasing it. If I like it, run.... save yourselves. Quickly find a replacment because it's not long for this world. Is anyone else like me?

Here's a few of my most recent:

Softsoap Foamworks Soap- Berry Fragrance- LOVE this soap. It's gone. Sayonara. I've bought them from Amazon and Ebay and I have cleaned them out. I have three bottles left.

Bath and Body Works Kid's Line- Strawberry/Kiwi Shower Gel. Now, I realize I'm 56, but I loved this stuff. It's gone with the wind.

Bath and Body Works Frosted Orange Cream Antibacterial Soap- they carried this for two weeks at Christmas 3 years ago. They sold out and never brought it back. Smells exactly like Orange Fanta. I'm down to one bottle.

Antibiotic- Septra DS- see.... it even extends to medications. I can't find this drug anywhere and I can't take the generic.

Bath and Body Works- Vanilla Bean Noel KITCHEN soap. They didn't carry it last year. I have two bottles left from an Ebay purchase. It's different than the anti-bacterial Vanilla Bean Noel soaps.

Some older ones:

McCormick's Bag N Season for Spareribs- my husband and I loved this.

Duncan Hines (or is it Betty Crocker) Cherry Chip Cake Mix.

Estee Lauder's Ceramic Pink Lipstick- this is the item that, when discontinued, started the discontinued trend for me.

Revlon Nail Polish in Misty Lilac.

Pillsbury Space Bars- remember them? They were delicious. From the 70's.

Choc-O-Lite candy bars.

Pepsi Light- From the 80's I think. This tasted really good. Touch of lemon in it.

I could go on for days, but won't. Anyone have favorite items that have been discontinued?


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?
