Palmolive sticks going going gone?

[Nishy]

I better stock up for the shop, must check availability this afternoon. It seems especially with pharmaceutical goods, anything cheap that works is being discontinued. They want those £8 Benylin sales.

So are the rumours fact? Do we know for sure they are discontinued?

My local Asda has them on special for 23p yesterday!!!

Delisted recently by Asda and likewise previously by Morrison's and Tesco. However still being actively sold by Superdrug and Wilkinson's.

Delisted by individual retailers is not the same as discontinued, so I'm on the fence until information from the manufacturer emerges

Thank you. This is most helpful. If the manufacturer hasn’t commented I will hold my fire until we have proof/confirmation/something firm to go on, rather than rumours.

Still available in Germany, at least at RE-WE.

Looks like Palmolive is abandoning the British market:
UK products for men:
https://www.palmolive.co.uk/products-range?type=Men's Care
German products for men:
https://www.palmolive.de/products-range?type=Pflege für Männer

Palmolive fans now have my permission to panic. Get them in before Brexit.

Thanks. I’ve dropped them a message from the website so let’s see what they come back with.

I don't think this has anything to do with Brexit They only offer a small selection on the Netherlands market as well. Our luck is simply that Germany is well within driving distance

I grabbed the last two sticks in my local independent pharmacy.

That should keep me going for at least the next couple of years.

I'm pretty sure they're sold in Belgium too.

This could turn into who has hoarded the most sticks thread forgot to check on stock from work.

Has anyone made an MdC esq brain bowl from Palmolive sticks? Had to ask.

When Morrisons had them at 25p a while ago I bought quite a few.
I have now given all of them away.
Best value for money soap there is, but I won't/don't miss it.

I will!! Hard to find a replacement for it. My face can’t cope with citrus notes as per Arko and I need a slap stick that really moisturises and is readily available.

No, but I just the other day grated a Palmolive shave stick into my use at home bowl. It works very well that way.
