Do I read this thread right, spray deodorant has just been invented in Canadia?

Good grief.

But they do make good flame throwers.

I bought some spray deodorant the store had marked down 50% (appears they are no longer selling it.) and I don't like it, not as effective as the regular degree that I use.

I am going to stick with the normal kind.
