I'm talking the old triangle shaped bottle with the question mark on it stuff. Just one whiff could make me hard. (probably helped that I had a girlfriend who wore it all the time) Anyway, I bought my wife a bottle of Guess perfume Christmas before last, and it wasn't even close. That shit sucked. Evidently they changed the product in the late 90's after the company sold. They shouldn't even use the name Guess. The answer to THAT question is "Shit?"Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11425014053974689270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269990339302416599.post-84911942996878580062011-10-29T03:25:12.666-04:002011-10-29T03:25:12.666-04:00What I find is that they discontinue the good item...What I find is that they discontinue the good items because they've come up with some sort of crap that they think is better.

Then there is that thrilling moment years later when they suddenly, out of the blue, bring it back! Followed immediately by trepidation. Will they snatch it away again? Such, cruel, evil teases.

(although maybe the lotion was saved by your huge purchase)<br /><br />I guess it's another aspect of getting older. Longer history with products and as we watch the life cycle, we see them pulled over time as their profitability diminishes. It doesn't help that a product needs such a high level of success to matter to these giant corporations. Although their size does force them to bring new products to market, so I suppose it's a catch-22.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17190937282558817928noreply@blogger.com
