Most of my cycling friends who are fans of mid-ride re-application* use small plastic screw-top containers (like the ones that folks store their contact lenses in) which they refill at home from the far more economical large sized chamois cream containers.
*perhaps interestingly, all of my cycling friends who are fans of mid-ride re-application are female.

You're in Chicago...and have never tried chamois cream. Just feel the need to point out Enzo's ButtonHole Chamois Cream is locally made and doesn't contain any petroleum products. We sell tens of thousands of jars a year on a product that we have developed over 13 years. As I said before: the old bike forums used to look down on turning posts into ads but it's such a basic product and nominal cost - give it a shot.
Heck you're local - pm me where you are near and I can probably tell you which shop near you carries it.

That was a smooth segue!
