I'm going on a 4-day trip within the US--how can I bring more liquids onto the plane?

I need to bring body soap, deodorant, shampoo, condition and toothpaste. However, it seems I can only bring 3 mL of one liquid. It costs $25 to check my small bag. What should I do?

1. 
   

   Fork over the $25 one-way fee and discard my liquids on the return.

   
   


2. 
   

   Is there an other option?
