Where to buy shaving brush/Giant Teddy bears?

passive

okay.. This doesn't fall under the "what to get" sticky because i know exactly what i'm buying and just need help knowing where to shop. (In Dublin)

I'm looking for a shaving brush for applying shaving foam for my dad. I was told to try chemists but have had no luck with boots & several other places. Since i'm pretty much on the deadline for ordering it online without fear of not getting it i'd really appreciate any help with this

And, on a cuter and fluffier note, where can i buy giant teddys? (not necessarily bears really) So far i've tried Smyths & Toymaster and am considering a couple of things from there.. I've also had the zoo suggested (but i think offhand that'll be hugely expensive) and am looking about online... But if anybody knows good shops for 3-5 foot high furry creatures i'd be very grateful.

Merry Christmas

Try World of Wonder for a bear or a cheaper alternative is dunnes no really.

The shaving brush may be harder, a chemist may be a better bet or ask in roches stores.

Hope that helps

Tesco have giant Lion cuddly toys ( i might be wrong in saying bears here) not sure how much but they are big big ones, Tesco every little helps !!

Body Shop sell shaving brushes and cream, in the men's section.

It's gone... it's just a generic teddy bear shop now... you can no longer 'stuff your own'

Did anyone else see the title of the thread and think he was trying to make a George bush clone?

Yeah.. i knew that about the Bear Factory =(. But thanks to both the suggestion guy and the correction guy.

I'll try both World of Wonder and relatively large Dunnes' during the week. And i'll wander over to the body shop.. Shall keep you all posted. Thank you very much everyone!

(and it's less of a clone and more of a well groomed robot...)
