I went to my grocery store yesterday --needed some Sensodyne toothpaste----and when I go to that section--it all was gone from the shelves with a sign that said--to go to the pharmacy to ask for some??!! What!!! Is there a toothpaste crisis I didn't know about ---is some nafarious implement of distruction being made from it??? Would have asked but too many people in line--just weird!!


It was still on the shelf here at my ShopRite.  However the price was $7.00 and I'm thinking that is the reason some stores may want to keep it away from potential shoplifters.  The way of the world I guess.  I'm off to check the price on A because $7 is a bit much for a toothpaste that lasts me maybe 3 weeks.

Re: toothpaste weird thing--

I wonder if there is a problem obtaining ingredients for certain brands.  Trader Joe's didn't have any toothpaste at all.  I was looking for Tom's fluroide-free toothpaste.  Someone who works there said they have been out for months and haven't been able to get it.  When she looked it up on their computer they won't be restocked until November.

 

Normal toothpaste is locked up everywhere around here becuase it is one of the favorite items for shoplifters to resell.

What did they saw at the pharmacy when you went there to get your toothpadte?

Someday, when scientists discover the center of the Universe....some people will be disappointed it is not them.
