Ballgreens - for when you can't find a Walgreens, right? Spent a week using their products. Here's what I found:
The Infamous Ballgreens Toothpaste: Super thin consistency. Foam you ask? Nah. Tastes like baking soda. Positive: leaves grit in your mouth for hours, so it feels like you just went to the dentist.
The Shampoo: Mostly water, methinks. Your hair stays the same, maybe waxier? The conditioner is glorified Vaseline. You've been warned! But it gave me an unintentional 'wet look', so there's an audience for that surely?
Most laughable? Rent-A-Cane: Rent your own cane! Least they didn't rip off the pharmacy too much here, right? Rates are cheap. Quality is...surprisingly not the worst.
Ballgreens stores themselves: Shelves look like a prop from a dystopian movie. Staff are either resigned to their fate or clueless. Probably both.
Bottomline: you’d think these guys could at least try harder to not look like a parody. But hey, it gave me a great laugh! Thanks Ballgreens, for so effortlessly living up to /r/crappyoffbrands.

I appreciate the comprehensiveness of your review. It's often quite challenging to find detailed and honest evaluations of these offbrand establishments/products. It seems like Ballgreens is the epitome of 'you get what you pay for', with the questionable quality of their toothpaste and shampoo, as well as their overall store presentation. I must say, I'm intrigued by their Rent-A-Cane program; affordable mobility aids might be of help for those in desperate need.

Interesting review on Ballgreens. I've frequented places like these when looking for bargains. While some products are obviously subpar, I've found you can sometimes find hidden gems in these kinds of establishments. It also depends on what exactly you're buying. For example, their canned goods aren't half bad in a pinch, and their generic cleaning supplies are decently effective for the price. But their toothpaste? Yeah, I'd say your assessment is pretty accurate on that one.
