Things that piss me off #976,542: Discontinuation of Favorite-est Product(ion).
Exhibit A:
Fresh Milk Lotion.
Flavor = Chocolate.
Status = Discontinued.
GirlReaction Stash = from 4 bottles down to less than an inch.
Exhibit B:
Philosophy 3-in-1 Shampoo/Body Wash, Bubble Bath.
Flavor = Orange Sherbet.
Status = Discontinued.
Girlreaction Stash = Down to the leftovers in the travel bag.
Why give you something so wonderful only to take it away?
And don't even get me started on the discontinued yarns buried in my hall closet...
60 balls of linen drape in the hall, 60 balls of linen drape...you take one down, pass it around, and there's...55 balls of magpie in the hall, 55 balls....
I wish I was kidding. I really wish I was.

Things that piss me off ... Bath and Body Works discontinuing Fresh Vanilla and Cool Citrus Basil. Two of my very favorite body lotions.
Also, fhe fuckers at Borders, my one-time favorite bookstore, which I will not patronize any more, even though I have $18.19 in holiday savings. I spent about $200 there and after they rung up my sale I realized I had some Border's Rewards. I asked them to re-activate the transaction (since working at Target I know they can do that) and the stupid, obnoxious cashier said he couldn't do that. HA! I e-mailed a complaint to them about not getting my Border's Rewards and they e-mailed me back about how Border's employees are discouraged, no, forbidden, about offering Border's Rewards. Really pissed me off. I e-mailed back that they could stick their Border's Rewards card where the sun don't shine. I am now a Barnes & Noble girl. I really hate that I can't go to Border's now, but it's a matter of principle.

Philosopby seems so very fickle with fragrances and products. I've had a couple of occasions with them that they just up and discontinued something I loved. My brother just gave me a bottle of their Hot Chocolate 3-in-1 body wash... if you're looking for something chocolatey...it's pretty nice.

Passion Fruit Cleansing Gel from the Body Shop. I need not say more, other than is there anyone else who wanted to die when it got discontinued?

I checked a local place that used to have it - but they only have plain Milk left. SO annoying.
LUSH, Sonic Death Monkey may suit you though - chocolatey lime goodness.
Magpie?

I'll go check the Fresh here for you.
Would that be... Magpie *Tweed*?

I wonder if I have any milk chocolate left, if I do it may be old but it is yours!

Oh I love the milk lotion bottle. It's so cute!

Dude. My favorite JEANS just got discontinued. Not that is some serious trauma.
