Title: Old Fashion -nail Files
Description: Where can I get some ?


mr b - September 7, 2009 02:21 AM (GMT)
Hi People,

I been trying to get hold of the old fashion finger nail files.....the one can bend and flex like size of ice-cream stick......usually like 2 or 3 in one pack....

The thing is all now like the new age type.....multicolour and bigger ......do not really like that...........

So anyone can point me to the direction of getting the old type pls let me know.....

Thanks
Mr B

tesco still carry things like this... but in a travel set of nail clipper, small nail file, hair remover... etc... stuff like that.... but i have no idea how much the file can be bent... not expensive at all

Thanks Mr K

Would not want to buy excess..........traviling kits.............but might go and look at Tesco..........and see..........

B,

1st nail files....then cutex nail polish!!! tsk, tsk, tsk...Boy of boy!!! :P :D

If you really want to get one that last longer, try Body Shop bro!! I've been using that for almost 7 years, still good.

I bought that 7 years ago at 20 ringgit. Now probably at 25 lah kut??? But never mind, your quest is a journey B man!! Good luck!!!

On the drab and tan, Mat Bondite has used it before. Fashion Bro, fashion....

Oh,
You looking for Nail Filer... the one with Sand Paper double taped on a pastic plate isst...

Bud Bilko are right!, Good Filer Last Longer... I use Watson 3 in 1 Pack cost about $RM16-$20 Last time. ehhh about 7 year ago too ...Hahaha and still using it until now!

but last last i go check... cannot find that 3 in 1 pack in watson already...

Mine's Sanding Stick is more smoother than a 2000 Grade Sand Paper!

Oh you can also Try "Daiso @ The Curve"... i saw some Sanding Stick there at nail department... every thing there $5 Only...

P/s: Ehhh... $25 for a nail file use for 7 yrs? Expensive meh? 3.50 a year conside cheap liao... in 1 year u use up how many pcs of 2000 Grade Sand paper? how muchie one Sand paper Cost? 2.20 - 2.80.. IMO.. so if u use up 2 pcs leh ... then u are much more a Orang Kaya lo!

B man

if u are looking for the ice cream stick look alike, i think u may get them for free if you stay in a 4 or 5 star hotel...i still got 2-3 which i got from awana kijal years ago.... they are good bro... :P :P

newer one tend to rosak awal..i bought mine at TESCO and last for 2 years... bought another at SINMA but lasted for a few months only....



the quest continue

mr b - September 7, 2009 10:49 AM (GMT)
Thank you Mr S

If fact, I also got a few from the hotels...........but stock all habis already...........only down to 2 more batang..........

Yeah thats why I do not like using the new age stuff...........anyways they bound to surface sooner or later..................

Thanks

To add to the pile, Mr. B you may want to check out Watsons outlets coz I got my last pack there when accompanying the HM of course. :P :) No respectable, nail-eating and crap thunder, macho man would be caught browsing alone in the nail care section. B)

Saw a kiosk in a JB mall which had a whole rack of different files but this is obviously useless info to us in KL....

mr b - September 8, 2009 01:01 AM (GMT)
Mr Bb .........Watson dun have ....got my wifey to check for me..........in fact that was the 1st stop..........nada........all those new age stuff............

Mr L .....Thanks..........might get a source in JB to look it up.............

The journey continues..........to the quest...........of the mother load of bendeble nail files..........

Thanks guys
Mr B

beachbum - September 8, 2009 01:09 AM (GMT)
Ah...most unfortunate. Perhaps the other pharmacies like Guardian or Caring and even ole 7-Eleven (one would be suprised what that place carries), then.

May the Guardian of Nail Files guide you to the mother lode.

mr b - September 8, 2009 01:14 AM (GMT)
Thanks Mr Bb

Hopefully..........Gurdian nope, all the other localized pharmacies in my area...nope....maybe caring ...will try and post once I am done

I just went to Watson in Jusco Cheras Selatan yesterday and I saw the file set that Beachbum mentioned. It was a pack of 15 nail files about the size of an ice cream stick but I could not locate the price.

mr b - September 8, 2009 01:31 AM (GMT)
Thanks Mr D

Finally there is hope.......so it could be that watson bukit tinggi in klg was out of stock or does not stock such...........

Will check out other Watsons............in KL area.............

Hmmm.... from what I can read from the posts here a most disturbing trend, so many big, macho, bullet eating-nail spitting men hanging around the women's nail and hand care section. :ph43r: :lol:

Hilmi - September 8, 2009 04:42 AM (GMT)
hemm from what mr beachbum has conclude, there's a best explanation 4 that... in my survey all this macho and bullet eating guy's are cleanning their eyes also. cos alot of lengloy and wow lady's there, so 2 in one ma.. hikhikhikhik :lol:

Silantra - September 8, 2009 04:57 AM (GMT)
