YES!

The pump is HANDY!

If it's a lube I like I'll get a big bottle. If I'm trying something new, I buy a small bottle and see if it causes any reactions first.

This is EXACTLY what we do as well. We generally don't have reactions to much, but we always like to try a small bit of something new to make sure we'll like it and it'll fit our uses, before we go buying a vat of it on something we don't know if it'll go to waste if we don't like it.

Once we do find something we like a lot, we often end up buying the largest size available to try and make sure we always have supply on hand.

If I'm testing it out, I'll get a 4oz. so I don't have too little (in case I really like it) or too much (in case I don't). If it's a lube I know I love, I'll get the biggest size possible. Bring it on!

We buy then all, or at least have, but the biggest is always the best!

I normally buy the smallest size available, i guess if i find one i really like i will go bigger. But atm just the least expensive size is the one i choose.

4 oz
2 oz
8 oz

We keep the lube in a cubby on our headboard. We have kids, so I don't need huge bottles of lube out on the nightstand. Four oz is about right. I would only buy 2 oz to try something new, if I wasn't sure about it, and it was an "introductory price." I would be hard pressed to buy 8 oz at a time. Mostly because I have to put it in a small closed cubby with a door, when we're not using it.

I like 4 oz, but I would buy an 8oz if given the opportunity.

If it's something new to us, we prefer to buy smaller sizes or samples.
However, after a quick check of our existing lubes, I found that most of our bottles are actually the 4 oz. size.

Now that I posted that two months ago, My Man and I find ourselves with an 8.5 oz of lube we really like. It doesn't fit in the cubby in our headboard, but we place it in a tall shelf that once housed a light on the headboard. I have some papers, mostly cardboard coupons, from everywhere from Adam and Eve (UG, old expired stuff) to Victoria's Secret to Bath and Body Works kind of standing up there, and it also is a good place to put my bottle of Toy Wash. Which also doesn't fit in the cubby.

I didn't think I'd want 8.5 oz of lube, but it is easy to grab such a large bottle. If this had a pump top it would be a bit easier to use.

Since I don't use that much and I travel a lot (thus need travel sizes)

1. 2 oz
2. 4oz
3. 8oz

I'll buy the 2oz first to try it out, unless the larger container isn't that much more expensive. Once I have a lube I like, I buy the biggest available.

A 55 gallon drum is nice.

When I do buy it is usually 8oz, but now i make my own.

When I know it works big is good (8oz or bigger). It's nice to know you have plenty on hand.

I would rather stock up with a big bottle than run out faster with a little one.

Personally I prefer the 4 ounce sizes. Not too big, not too small. Sometimes larger sizes are preferable too.

I usually get 2oz, IF, I'm trying a new lube. If I like it then I get the bigger version.

Bigger IS better! I like for it to last. If it turns out to be something I don't like, I'll just pass it down the line for a friend to try.

I just voted 2oz. We've been buying small ones because we're still trying to figure out what we like. I don't want to end up with a big bottle of something I don't like.

When I find a lube that I like, we buy the biggest bottle they sell.

The last time my boyfriend and I bought lube we were still in our "trying to find what's best for us" phase. Now we're looking into getting the huge pump bottle of IDGlide, it's what's worked the best so far. Way more that 8 ounces! But we're still going to be buying smaller bottles or other lubes for a change of scene, or to see if we can find something even better

If it is a lube I have tried before and love I'll get an 8oz or larger, but if its new I like sample sizes or 1oz bottles

personally i prefer smaller bottles; i don't use any during sex (unless it's anal), just during play so it's not entirely necessary to have a lot. i would buy a 4-6oz bottle

I like to start small to try it out. Then if I like it I go big.
