Anyone here ever bought VO5 Extra Body Shampoo? If so, how do you

get it? I got some last week and there’s nothing on the label or website. I called their customer service line, and the woman I spoke with just laughed at me. When I got pissed off she threatened to report me to the police.

When I bought it I figured that $.79 for an extra body and a bottle of shampoo was a damn good deal. If I’d known what a hassle it was going to be, I would’ve got my usual volumizing shampoo. Which now that I think about it, doesn’t really work!

If you manage to get that extra body, what will you do with the current rickety one? I'm not seeing it listed on my local recycling center's website.

It's not something I'd want to have laying around my house somewhere.

However, I would still consider it a good deal to spend 79 cents to replace the lower leg and foot that I had amputated. Prosthetic limbs ain't cheap.
