Cremo Shave Cream

[rdh1223]

The Christmas Tree Shop (poughkeepsie, ny) has a good selection of Mens shave cream for a local store in lower Ny, with probably 6-8 shave creams.

Cremo Shave Cream was in stock and came with a mail in rebate for up to $7 towards the cost of the product. It was less than $7 dollars so I guess the final cost will be the price of a stamp to mail that in......

In addition to Cremo they also stocked The real shaving Co. Amenity shave. Toms of Maine. Burts Bees and a few others.....

Dunno if this place is nationwide or a smaller chain but if you happen to live near one or like me you get dragged to one by that special some1 to look for seasonal junk to put in front of the house atleast they have something for ya to browse as well.

Go back and get all the Tom's of Maine. That stuff's been discontinued for a while and it's great. Burt's Bees is terrible and the others you can get elsewhere, but Tom's....

There are two near me. The one in North Attleboro, MA has a variety similar to what you have listed. The one in Foxboro, MA has nothing at all. I also got my Creamo with the rebate from the Xmas tree shop .

Hmm, Toms huh? I dunno my Gf already thinks im nuts something to do with my new Scad. While I was at the Xmas tree shop getting the Cremo and Real Shaving Co (senstive anti razorburn kind, which theres no review for but i guess ill find out how it is then post somewheres) I asked her to go to Bath and Body to get some C.O. Bigelow. The day before I picked up some KMF at Stopandshop and ordered the Trumpers sampler from the thread at the top of this discussion. In addition to having several soaps already in use. I think when I buy a few more razors and start with the purchasing of even more blades that she might begin taking serious issue with my new; beginng to become expensive; hobby.........after all wetshaving was going to save me money and help the environment right? Atleast thats how I sold the idea when I was asked why I wanted to buy a used razor and spend 20 mins every morning playing with a brush and a bowl of soap. Didnt think she would understand the whole "zen" thing, maybe I will corrupt her and see if I cant get her to use the KMF on her legs and go from there...... But "sigh" another trip to xmas shop for Toms would seem to be in order.

Kyle,

Would you happen to know if any of the Christmas Tree Stores in NJ carry your product?

You can get Cremo Cream at Wegmans supermarkets ... there should be one within a reasonable distance of you.

Coincidentally enough, I was in NJ today and saw Cremo in the Bed Bath & Beyond on Rt. 1 near Princeton. No rebate but if you can get one of those ubiquitous 20% off coupons, it's only ~$5.

Thanks, Kyle. There are any number of Harmon's outlets that are a stone's throw away.

Kyle, is the rebate exclusive to the ones sold at Christmas Tree Shops? NYC doesn't have one.

engdom, I bought a couple of Cremo tubes in a BB&B with the rebate. The rebate forms are red tags that are simply affixed to the tube via piece of transparent tape.
Good luck!

ahhh I went to BB&B this afternoon and they only had Lady Cremo but no rebate. I bought a tube anyway, since my lady legs smelled quite manly today from sharing my FI's NY Shaving cream. Paid $7 and change for it since I was already there.

Sorry for takin so long responding to my own thread..... Ive just aquired so much shaving gear in the past few weeks and havent been lurking here as much. CremoCream is a really cool product that is somewhat different from "traditional" creams and soaps in my opinion but isnt any less effective for it. The stuff has a really mellow kind of lemon scent which is pleasing early in the morning and shaves really well although its not a lathering beast like Tabac (but then again it doesnt smell like Tabac either). The lather seems to require more product and a healthy dose of water but once you get a consistancy that makes for a comfortable shave theres usually enuff lather on your brush for atleast 3-4 passes. I get a really clean shave from this stuff with hardly any razorburn, once i finished shaving and had 0 razorburn but that was probably a fluke as im still working on my technique.... Great Product and def will be buying another (first one as stated above was free with promotion, but at $7 its a steal especially considering I can find it local) tube for my dopp kit and Ill prob pick up a lady cremo as a stocking stuffer for xmas.
