Having trouble with some items my husband bought that trigger bad memories....

Over the last 7 years I have avoided certain things in my home. Even before my husband and I lived together. Colgate.... the original blue gel is not aloud in my home. I would toss it away and replace it in his apartment. Half the time he thought his roommate took it or tossed it. If he bought a new one I'd take it back and exchange it for another brand until he just stopped buying it... He's always bought Tag or Axe body wash/deodorant.... last week he bought Speed Stick gel and I shivered at the smell of the item. I have thought about it over the last week and want to take them back to the store for a refund. Don't know if I should do it.... I'm thinking. I should just tell him I dislike the smell. Maybe he'll do it himself or ask me to take them back for him. I'm not sure. I'll stew on it some more. For now I tossed them under my couch and he's using axe deodorant since it's still a full bar.
