You can try to make it sound more innocent by saying "swiping," but it's still stealing. Dollar store.

Haha I'd do the same thing! Don't worry OP, you're not alone in your struggles haha

Also with all these people saying you'd ruin your friendship, that's just dumb. If your friends are going to end a friendship over deodorant then they aren't very good friends haha. My friends would think it was hilarious then buy me some, not get rid of me!

Really? REALLY REALLY? You're kinda sad aren't you?

That must really....stink!

Just don't wear deodorant :)

You probably have a friend who does buy-one-get-one shopping, or who stockpiles things like deodorant. Be honest with that friend and ask if they can spare a deodorant, maybe toothpaste, etc. If a friend in need asked me, I'd be happy to give what I could - and would never hold it against them or think less of them as a result. Friends - real friends - aren't like that.

You can use lime or lemon. It actually works, I had to use it for a few days because my power went out. :/ and it works ok.

And yet you have the internet.

Things always get better :)
