Spinz

Walgreens has the Crest Spinbrush Pro Whitening powered toothbrush on special, if you buy one (about $8) you get a coupon for $3 off your next Walgreens purchase. I bought one today, then turned around and used the $3 to buy candy. Heh.

This toothbrush feels really weird. I was using an Oral-B Pulsar, which is just a regular toothbrush strapped to a vibrator. The Spinbrush, on the other hand, has a part that spins around in a circle, kind of like that funky tooth polisher your dentist uses, and it has a part that scrubs up and down. The result is a toothbrush that feels like it's doing the brushing for you. My teeth feel almost dentist-visit clean now.

I used the $3 coupon to buy a couple tins of the latest Altoids flavor, Cool Honey. Alas, it doesn't taste much like honey, it's mostly a minty flavor. It's not really all that good. I am disappoint.

Do they do a Cool Caramel, by any chance? I've got xylitol gum in mint/caramel, and it's awesome.

The only flavors Altoids makes (in mints) are peppermint, wintergreen, spearmint, cinnamon, ginger, liquorice, crème de menthe and cool honey. They also have chocolate covered peppermint, cinnamon, ginger and crème de menthe.

A vibrator? Could women use the brush as a sex toy? hmmmmm

I was looking for some rabbit stuff on Amazon (books, plush, etc) and using the search word 'rabbit' the first item to appear is just that: a vibrator!

I've heard of people using them that way, yes.
