no Proraso at Target?

I went to the local Target store to buy Proraso shaving cream and see what other products were available. Just 2 months ago I bought Proraso shaving soap at the same store. I couldn't find the Proraso products in Men's section by the Spa section like last time. So I looked in the shaving section. Nothing!! So I asked one of the ladies working there about the Proraso products. She said that they weren't carrying them now. :cry: All she could recommend was buying online. Is this just isolated to norheast Iowa or all Target stores? Are there any other chain stores that carry Proraso products? :shrug:

I would say that Proraso's days at Target are
numbered, regardless of the location. I really
can't imagine it being a hot seller.

The Target in Redwood City, CA had everything but cream as of two weeks ago and had cream a week before that. :shrug:

i looked at target and walmart and i didn't find any proraso products. i actually checked at a few different locations

Don't give up yet guys! I work at a Target for a second job and I can tell you that they are constantly puting EVERYTHING ON CLEARANCE!.

They discontinue items for a couple of weeks and then they redo their aisle settings. I believe it is a way for them to keep the place looking nice and dust behind. They will likely return the product within a couple of weeksand perhaps ina slightly different location or display.

It is ironic as last night I noticed the price on the remaining proraso clearance. I returned today on my lunch break and bought the brush for 6.59, the pre/post for $3something, aftershave balm for $6.59 tub soap for $1.95! Not much was left.

If I were you guys I'd ask the head store managers of a product return and their clearance practices. I'll ask at my store tomorrow when I work again.

I think I read somewhere that the manufactor of Proraso is discontinued. I could be wrong, but that might be the reason for the shortage.

the problem with Target is that the Proraso creams keep running out very quickly. i have been to a target one day and they are gone the next. Also they are a bit slow to restock.

The A/S splash is the only product that has been discontinued everything else is still on the menu

I was at the Target in Cedar Rapids, and they were stocked full...which is a first for me as far as Target and non-disposable shaving products go. I actually found the Proraso brush I had been looking for, although I wouldn't recommend it.

The Super Target on Blairs Ferry? I looked there and all I could find was the Proraso A/S cream. (Which I picked up...)

Perhaps the Target shelves are being cleared for a new line of Proraso as Giovanni told us about a few days ago. http://members.boardhost.com/razoran...175949802.html

I've been waiting for about a month for my local Targets to restock the green Proraso tubes. They have all the other products but not the tube cream.

I finally decided to order from www.qedusa.com. It's more expensive, and there's shipping to pay, but I got some Taylor lime cream while I was at it. :)

Seems like Target just got rid of the only reason I shop there. Too bad.

Got curious, so I called my local Target. They said they were getting in a new line and that the current line was discontinued. So it seems the rumors are true.

That's a shame. I guess I won't be making any more trips to Target ...

Yeah, my buddy and I had to go to three different Targets today to find the Pre-shave cream. The other two had everything but the pre-shave cream, but in very limited quantities. All the products were marked down by half in order to sell them quicker. When we finally found the Pre-cream at the third Target, we bought all they had. I guess I will be ordering the stuff online from now on.
