Favorite Shaving Cream / Soap and worst purchase!

OK, here's what I am looking for:

1. What is your SINGLE favorite shaving cream or soap $15 or less?
2. What is your SINGLE favorite shaving cream or soap between $15 and $30
3. What is your SINGLE favorite shaving cream or soap over $30 (the sky is the limit)?
4. What is your worst shaving purchase of any kind (creams, blades, razors, etc.)?
 
1. KMF Lavender Cream . Palmolive Soap
2. MWF and Tabac
3. I'm probably not a good resource for this because I try to buy inexpensive items that perform well. I do like Trumpers Coconut
4. Williams Soap- Love the smell but get horrible shaves with it. Palmolive Shave Cream (red and white tube)-poor-adequate results, but can't stand the smell.

1. Probably either Speick Shave Stick, Wilkinson Sword Shave stick or Palmolive Euro Shave stick (Camelot shave stick, GDZ and Arko would be in there too, all in sticks of course). Sorry, can't decide.
2. mmm, Martin de candre is below $30 before shipping so that one
3. No idea, I don't spend that much on soap
4. Erasmic shave stick is one of the worse products I tried lately!
 
1. Speick Cream
2. TOBS Jermyn Street
3. I've yet to do this, although I'm considering WM Neumann or Truefitt and Hill purchases at some point.
4. Herbaria Bay Rum....they're a local St. Louis soap maker with GREAT soaps and wonderful scents. This soap would not lather, however. Was hoping for better since it smelled so goo.

I haven't been at this too long, but...

1. Proraso
2/3. Haven't spent that much
4. Derby Extra blades, "Herban Cowboy" soap, Shea Moisture anything
 
1. Haslinger and Cella
2. The Fat and Tabac
3. Haven't been there yet. But it will be MdC or Panama 1924 when I do.
4. Cyril R. Salter Soap. This has got to be the deadliest soap on the planet. Use this, and prepare to bleed, a lot!
 
1) Mike's Lime
2) and 3) If I can get Mike's for under $15, along with others that work well (RazoRock, Mystic Water), why spend more?

Regrets - buying an Omega synthetic badger because of the nice handle, knowing that I would still order the Muhle silvertip fiber.
 
1. Taylor of Old Bond Street Shave Cream or Soap
2. Edwin Jagger 99.9% Shave Cream
3. Muhle Sandalwood Shaving Cream
4. Fusion 5 Blade Razor (Worst Razor Burn of my life)

Only have experience with 3 soaps but more are on there way.

1. Profaso green
4. Herban Cowboy Dusk very thin weak lather.
 
1. Mike's Natural Shaving Soap
2. Tabac
3. Art of Shaving - Tallow formula
4. Store brand DE blades labeled "Le Technique." I have a two word review for them: Le Crap. Didn't even make it through a single shave before I tossed them because they were so dull. I think they might be made by Dorco.
 
1) C&E Nomad soap
2), 3) I've never spent more than $15 on soap or cream
4) just some samples of products I won't buy again
