In the UK most drug stores (we call them chemists or pharmacists here) are gearing more towards mach 3 blades and so-called modern shaving creams. However "Superdrug" in Glasgow city centre are currently selling Ingrams menthol shave cream for the absolute steal price of £1.79, and also my local drugstore are selling Wilkinson Sword safety razor blades (packs of 5) for 79 pence !?! Needless to say I bought £10 worth of blades (basically 12 packs of 5).

David, I absolutely LOVE Ingram! It's my #1 favorite of all menthol creams, and I was lucky to receive a few as gifts from a wonderful chap in the UK. I'm also an Erasmic soap lover, hence my avatar!

Crackstar-Ingrams used to be REALLY popular when I was growing up as a teen in the 70s. It's definitely got a loyal following, and to be quite honest I started buying it again when the guys on this messageboard were praising it's virtues.

David, a menthol cream like Ingram is vital to my rotation!

I wonder if there is a new term in the Oxford English dictionary to describe an addiction to menthol shaving cream? ;)
