Local supermarket supplies

I was rather surprised to see this range in my local Foodland supermarket.

I am also surprised. My local IGA is charging 20¢ more for for Palmolive regular cream!

Unfortunately they don't have the pre-shave because I do use that.

Yep - my thanks to @Zeke for the OP. Picked up some sandalwood aftershave and bodywash; agree with @nsavage and @StratMan - good stuff and very reasonably priced.

Thanks to those mind-readers in the forum, I was going to ask if anyone had tried the Nelum - I guess I'm going back to the shop soon...

@Zeke - you won’t regret it.

@TomG - you're spot on, I don't regret it. A fabulous lotion. My skin felt great all day and at lunchtime I was still getting occasional whiffs of the Sandalwood scent. Really good gear that!

Has Nelum discontinued the aftershave now? On their website it’s nowhere to be found… Unobtainium?

I sent an email to them last year and a bloke rang me and assured me that they are still making it. He said if it's not in the local supermarket I should ask about ìt so the get it back in again.

The hunt for the mystical Nelum Sandalwood aftershave continues...

I've searched multiple IGA stores with no luck so far.

After gym this morning, I went to my local Drakes Supermarket. They stocked a lot of Nelum products, but just like their website - just soaps, hand wash and body wash.
I decided to buy a soap in Sandalwood.

I will contact the Store Manager to see if they can order in the aftershave. At the entrance of the store they displayed a photo of him - a bearded chap.
I will send him an email - but yeah, it's not looking good.
