Post by: Mike on May 20, 2009, 10:53:37 PM: I cant figure out if there is a CVS in my area. When I went to their site it said there was an error or something then I went to yellowpages online and it didnt give me a direct answer. I ony have an old phone book so I cant look there. I think there might be but not sure. Does anyone know if there is one in the Spokane Washington area?

Post by: dawgfan on June 03, 2009, 04:31:16 AM: Anyone ever tried using a simple "baby wipe"? I know they make a ton of different kinds with different ingredients. I currently use the head wipes from baldguyz and I'm very happy with their product. Unfortunately for me, I have very oily skin and live in the south...not a good combination. I could easily use two or three head wipes during any given workday. Just looking for other options...

Post by: GaryT on June 04, 2009, 08:41:03 AM: I ended up trying two different types. (can't remember names right now) They were certainly much less expensive! BUT, IMHO they do not even close to the HB sheets. HB is so much larger and does not shred or pull apart as easily. They're just much stronger. With the inxpensive ones I often get little pieces stuck to my stubble. So as for me...I'm going to stick with the HB towels for now.
