Sure, we all know one.<\/p>\n<p>They wash their hands over 30 times a day; have a Costco-sized bottle of waterless hand sanitizer on their desk; opens public restroom doors with a paper towel; puts enough layers of sanitary covers on a toilet seat that it provides a slight cushion; or uses Lysol on EVERYTHING.<\/p>\n<p>Well if you have yet to get that person a Christmas gift, what better gift to give them than the gift of cleanliness.<\/p>\n<p>Might I suggest the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.methodhome.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Method<\/a> Green Tea + Aloe Hand Wash. <\/p>\n<p><i>Editor&#8217;s Note, Part Two:  Um&#8230;For you smokers of the <a href=\"http:\/\/dictionary.reference.com\/search?q=ganja\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ganja<\/a>, there is no correlation between the name <a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbandictionary.com\/define.php?term=method&#038;r=f\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Method<\/a> and the fact that the color of this hand wash is green.  Method products come in a wide range of colors.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been a really big fan of Method products for a while, although to be honest I&#8217;ve never used any of their products until now.  <\/p>\n<p>The reason why I didn&#8217;t try any was because I couldn&#8217;t get my dirty hands on Method products here on this rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean (We so desperately need a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.target.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Target<\/a>).  However, Impulsive Buy groupie Akiko gave me some.<\/p>\n<p><i>Editor\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Note, Part Three:  Um&#8230;When I say, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153she gave me some,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d I meant she gave me a bottle of Method Green Tea + Aloe Hand Wash.  Just thought I&#8217;d clear that up, since she is an Impulsive Buy groupie.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>I think I became a fan of Method products after reading an article about them in one of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.business2.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Business 2.0<\/a> issues I stole from my doctor&#8217;s office. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m a fan because their products come in nice curvy bottles and I&#8217;m sucker for things that have curves, like Catherine Zeta Jones and the Pillsbury Dough Boy.  Another reason is because their products are biodegradable, non-toxic, naturally derived, and aren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t tested on animals, which satisfies my tree-hugging side.  Finally, I like the company because its name starts with the letter \u00e2\u20ac\u0153M.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>As for the Method Green Tea + Aloe Hand Wash, besides being green in color and environmentally-friendly, it smells really good.  <\/p>\n<p>So what does green tea combined with aloe smell like?  It smells clean.  It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not fruity, flowery, or girly.  It just smells clean.<\/p>\n<p>Just the way obsessive-compulsive people like to smell.<\/p>\n<p>If you think about it, our obsessive-compulsive friends maybe on to something with all of this cleanliness.  Think about all the things that get touched a lot on a daily basis by people.   You don&#8217;t know what kind of people they are or where these people have been.  <\/p>\n<p>Imagine all the germs on these things, like doorknobs, money, elevator buttons, handrails, and Paris Hilton.  <\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b> Method Green Tea + Aloe Hand Wash<br \/>\n<b>Purchase Price:<\/b>  FREE (retail price $4.00)<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b>  8 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  Clean scent.  Environmentally friendly.  Nice curvy bottle.  Oh yeah, let me feel those curves on that bottle.  Oh yeah, let me feel those curves on the Pillsbury Dough Boy.  Teehehehehe.<br \/>\n<b>Cons:<\/b>  Kind of pricey for hand soap.
