Axe Deodorant Stick Phoenix 3 oz

My husband likes this particular scent, Phoenix. He also uses the shower gel in this scent. What we are not happy about is that there are 2 types of stick. one is a white chalky substance and the other is a clear blue gel type. He likes the blue gel type and it is difficult to get. It does not appear to be stocked in the stores much. I have to try to remove the lids to see if the deod is the white chalk crap or the clear blue gel looking one. The lids are on tight so it is hard to remove them. For months we have not been able to get the clear stick one in the stores. I had to order it on line at a much higher price than what the cost is in the store. They are getting from a supplier. So I buy several of them so we have them and it is sad because to get free shipping for an item that one should be able to get from the store, we have to spend $35. The deod cost this time was over $11 each (per tube) so we reach the $35 amt quickly but it is not right to have to pay that much when the crappy chalk one that they sell on the shelf in the store sells for under $5.
