Default small tubes of grease

The bicycle grease is what I wanted, but a bit pricey. Might do that, if nothing else shows up.

How about bicycle grease? It's kind of overpriced, but it fits your
criteria.

Otherwise, it's pretty easy to refill a tube of toothpaste; I do this
all the time for backpacking with the little travel-sized tubes, and
have refilled the same one about a half dozen times already. The
"trick" is to just hold the output (source) tightly against the tube you
want to fill, and squeeze the source tube.

It wouldn't take much effort to do the same with a grease gun and a tube
of toothpaste. The trick here would be cleaning all of the toothpaste
out of the empty tube, but a few shakings with hot water, followed by
drying it out, would supply you with the tube.
