Your favourite inexpensive product?

I wish I could share a positive experience with regards to Ingams but despite numerous attempts I can't seem to get that runny goo to work for me.

On the other hand Palmolive cream I find outstanding. Its the cream I started to learn to lather in a bowl with. An incredible lather and gorgeous cushion. Maybe the slickness could improve IMHO but hey who is complaining for a couple of quid in a tube that punches well above its weight.
The scent is moderate but gives you that "old skool soap" scent that is still refreshing.
I have tried a few off the shelf soaps now including, Wilkinsons, Arko, Ingrams, Arko cool, Arko Sensitive and Palmolive is far superior to all of them IMHO.
I must confess I am yet to use any artisan soaps but that honour is next on my must do list.
So as I speak Palmolive is up there with the best "pound for pound." cream out there :)

EDIT: and how naughty was I to forget the Omega pro 49 boar brush. As a newbie it was suggested to me by an awesome member here @patw who so kindly helped my along my way, amongst others with newbie decisions.
This brush is truly outstanding and for under a tenna it must be up there as a TOP buy.

Palmolive shave stick
Ingram shaving cream
Wilkinson Sword Classic safety razor
Thumbs up to Monsavon soap (I detect a slight whiff of Dettol)
Derby shaving stick
......and the list goes on!
 
Fantastic stuff!..well for me anyway..it doesn't get top marks for it's Fragrance qualities, but it's shaving performance,slickness & protection & price its worth a buy..takes a while to arrive,the tins are normally slighted battered in places, but apart from that i'll always have it in my shaving den.

it's perfectly safe to use, you won't "glow in the dark" after you've shaved with it..wonderful post shave feeling to the skin, not leaving your face, looking like a baboon arse. Regards.

My favourite inexpensive product is ProRaso Red shaving soap in a tub. It performs flawlessly, in my opinion has an amazing scent and is easy to buy with Amazon (in Italy is also a real bargain, sold for less than 2€ shipped with Prime or as a Plus product).
