Key West supplies?

[trick420]

Hey everyone,

so I'm down here in Key West for a long weekend, and desperate for a shave. I packed my case brush and some Tabac, along with my Fatip de, and thought "I'll swing by a CVS and get a pack of blades and then toss them before flying home (carry on bag).
So I get to the CVS on Duvall and the friggin CVS brand house DE and they're $7.50 a pack!!! Well, I'm not paying that ... I'll go shaggy first.
But I am desperate to rid my face of this stubble. Are the any places in Key west that have DE blades cheaper? If they were feathers or something like that I wouldn't feel so bad about getting ripped off.

There are several Family Dollars along the overcoast highway they would have rebadge Dorco's 300s for about a $1 for 5 if they carry any DE blades there. I know the ones here in vegas carry them and while Dorcos 300s are not my first blade of choice i would use them in a pinch. Hopefully someone who knows the area will be able to point you towards a better a better quality blade.

Blades...blades...blades...

Dunno.

Just avoid the Naples Soap on Duval.

I wonder if your best bet might be one of the shops over in the old port, which don't only cater to tourists. Caroline Street Market, for example, might carry DE blades. I'd give 'em a call first, though: http://www.yelp.com/biz/caroline-street-market-key-west

Good luck.

Surely there must be some Key West B&Bers in this salty bunch!
