Look What We Found in The Airport Bathroom for Diez Pesos

October 13, 2009 at 5:00 PM | by | Comments (4)

Yesterday we were making our way out of Guadalajara and decided to hit up the bathrooms at the airport right before boarding our plane. Having just finished some enchiladas at the Wings restaurant (we passed on the Chili's chain), our breath was feeling less than fresh which is why we were pleased to see this vending machine inside the ladies bathroom.

For diez pesos, which is something like 75 cents, you can buy a Brushito, an "On the Go" toothbrush set complete with a fold-up toothbrush, a flosser and a mini, mini-tube of toothpaste. (If Barbie bought Costco-sized toothpaste, it would look like this.) And it even comes in little plastic balls, like the ones you used to lust after as a kid. You know, at the grocery store where, for 25 cents you'd get one of these plastic balls that held either a spider ring or a wash-off mermaid tattoo.

Even though we had packed a toothbrush and toothpaste in our carry-on, we couldn't resist buying our very own toothbrush ball, despite the unfortunate name of Brushito. Yet we sort of think all restaurant and airport bathrooms should have these. Fresh breath for all!

yes!

yes! I saw these in a UK truck stop. But they were a pound each--which equals $1.60!

Brushito

Brushito isn't an unfortunate name, it's a wonderful name. I may well name my next child Brushito Ozols.

luv it when...

other countries have what I would call random stores. This is so convenient because I know there are a lot of people who find themselves saying, "I wish i had a toothbrush handy."
