Hello friends,
How many of us have been into supermarkets, to see men and women open up cans after cans to test the deodorants or air fresherners? I don't know about you but I see them do it all the time, and it annoys me. Which is why I subconsciously pick up deodorants and air fresheners which are placed right at the back, hoping these mean customers haven't tested these already!
Why do people do this? They pick up the can, open the lid and spray it into mid air, and smell it. If they dont like it, they will place it back. If they do like it, they will put this used can back, and pick one up which is further back. They spray into the air, onto their arms, onto their clothes and sometimes even into the caps. Why? Why? Why?
Not only this, they will open up shampoo and conditioners and smell them, They open up boxes of gels as well. To smell it.
When I see someone do this, I stand and stare at them. They may look back at me, but I think it's a crime when you spray deodorants and air freshers into mid air, because the following customer will unsuspectingly pick up the used can. It's unfair for the innocent customers as it is for the supermarkets, who will find half used cans difficult to sell.
There should be a policy against testing new deodorants and air-freshners. That's why The Body Shop is clever and always put one tester out there. Those who do test new cans, they should be banned from coming to that supermarkets!

lol - dude i do that sometimes. Though i only spray the minutest bit into the lid of the deoderant - and only if i don't know what it smells like :)
yeah kashif, you should be banned from that store now.. LOOL .....but see, even if you spray the minutest amount, the can will be half empty if many shoppers do the same thing each day.......I still say shoppers who spray new cans should be banned from the market.....unfeasible idea, but still an idea. lol!

Well its common as you told, but I think its Supermarket fault(not me). They do have testers for perfumes... they should keep the same for atleast airfresners and deodrants.
what do you say ...fair enough!
yes, the supermarkets should keep a tester aside for every brand they stock, or at least a smaller tester can out there. This way, the next time when I am shopping for deodorant, i dont have to shake all the cans there to see which one has the most in it, or which is half empty. Or, better yet, there should be a device which prevents from people to press the spray button...if they, they pay for the stuff..when I want my 130ml of gillete deo, I want my 130ml...not 100ml or 70ml...lol!!!
