shower gel
 
Can anyone tell me can you buy shower gel in canada?

Or do i need to goto costco and buy a case full.

Is there anything else people can think of that you can't get in canada?

You can buy shower gel, there's just not the choice...and some of them (well, the girls' ones anyhow) smell really sickly. Dove here smells yukky and completely different to Dove in the UK. We tend to stock up on visits back or ask visitors to buy a couple from Boots at the airport...other than that they're ok here, just a general lack of choice, but hey, who needs 50 different shower gels to choose from! :thumbup:

Almost certainly. :thumbsup:

We hope to fly out and land around 7/8 Oct. The kids will start school on 15th Oct - the school emailed us to confirm our arrival.

All I need to do is work out a good route to Wasaga from London and I'll be on my bike.

Oh sure you can buy it but it's diffcult to rinse off as there is no hot running water.

...and in the absence of shower gel, many ex-brits have experimented with novel applications of m**m*te.
