http://www.alice.com does this for toothpaste an a number of other products.
No, but I hate it when my girlfriend does!
I buy my toiletries by the dozen, I never run out, I shop at Sams Club!

Heard of http://www.tuskfairy.com?
I like it. I'd use it, if it wasn't too expensive...
I hate running out of toothpaste, and you probably do too!
Every month or so, I use up all of my toothpaste, and have to run out to the store to pick some more up. This annoys me every time - toothpaste is NOT an impluse buy!
I mean, I've used the same brand for a decade. I brush my teeth twice a day. Clearly, toothpaste (and all of my other toiletries) is something I shouldn't have to worry about - it should just appear in my bathroom when needed!
My startup pitch is this:
A service that would, once a month, deliver by mail ALL of your needed toiletries - toothpaste, shampoo, shaving cream, deodorant, soap, etc. These would be the products you use normally - Old Spice, Colgate, Gillette, etc. The prices would be equal to, or often less than the store prices.
