That's the attitude I am happy to make wait behind me in any line. Unlike shampoo, it is not easy or even recommended to transfer the paste between containers. Specialized toothpaste rx or not, is not always available / sold in the 3 oz or less size. The cost of the product and additional cost for that smaller size also are a consideration as its diff than for a generic tube of Crest.
