A & D is disappearing in Canada!!! A lot of stores and distributors that used to carry it all have it listed as "discontinued". I've tried to contact Merck in the US but they say they don't know what is going on, and refer me to Merck Canada, who never answer their phone or reply to emails.

So I thought I would switch to Aquaphor Healing, but I can barely find that in Canada either - and where I can find it at a decent price is in the jar, and honestly, I don't want to be dipping into a jar (even with a single use sterilized applicator) repeatedly. I'm just nit-picky that way about cleanliness - I like my ointments in a tube.

I can order A & D or Aquaphor from the States, but ordering from anywhere poses a problem as far as the product's expiry date is concerned. If I can't see the listed expiry, or be able to ask what the expiry is ... I could very possibly receive an expired product which is useless to me.

I've been using Purtect lately - ordered from Eikon where I get all my other goodies, but I just don't like the texture of it as much as A & D - it isn't as smooth. It's a great product - but we all have our preferences.

So what's a Cannuck to do???

Superman - you might have some thoughts for me?? What are you using lately.
