FYI, These are being freely given away at many, many AA ticket counters. It's the Germ-X brand, small travel size, and it comes in a TSA-Friendly zip-loc bag too! Bonus baggie!

The TSAs do not like them...a lot of people throw the baggie as-is into their carry on, and then it's a 2nd bag that now violates the 1-baggie rule. And/or, they stuff the GermX into their already overflowing 1-baggie, and stuff keeps falling out, and it's a hassle to check. So far, I've found most AA ticket counter agents glad to part w/ several at once---so stock up!
