The only place we have found in our area is ONE British import shop. Works out well cos we can stock up on Oxo cubes, Bird's Custard, StickyToffee or Treacle Pudding, and Bisto at the same time

I swear the cats all go into hiding tho when they see that bottle lol They look at him and hiss, and when he is in the tub...they sit outisde the closed door and act like they are covering it up lol They then make the "STINKY" face in the general direction lol

Ya...they hate it lol

its like a disinfectant, if we got scratched up as kids, rollerskating or falling out of a tree, then we got detol in the bathtub, or in a tub of water to soak the wound. It cleans out all the germs and nasties... and it has a smell that will always remind me of being a monkey child!

WOW...

Dettol is on almost every pharmacy shelf here in Ontario,

Oxo cubes, birds custard, Bistro, and sticky toffee are staples in most of the grocery stores... even the low end stores...

I find it fascinating sometimes the little differences in culture and we are just a few hours north of you

Last time I bought it was when I was in South Africa, haven't ever found it in a store in the usa. There are online stores you could find it, I think the one we shop at is called Africa hut or something similar.

OXO cubes

I miss being able to buy Elizabeth Anne baby shampoo - I love that smell!! It might just be a south african product. I had my sister mail it to me for my babies born here.
