I love Coast Original Soap
I’ve been a loyal user of Coast Original Soap since the late 70’s. It was a shock to me when the Dial Corp took it off the shelves and replaced it with their new Coast Pacific Force scent. I gobbled up every bit of the Original that I could find and basically tapped out all of the availability at internet retailers.
I now go to great lengths to find it and pray that my now 250+ bar stash will never run out.
What’s great about the Internet is that it enables people like me to find others in the same boat.
Thank you John Grove for reading my post on ABestWeb and hooking me up with 50 more bars!
And so I ask… What is your guilty pleasure and what lengths do you go through to get it?

MOUNTAIN DEW! Thank goodness, the original is still around. I think I would have to do something evil to Pepsi if they ever stopped making it. However, they have tried other “formulas” with “Baja Breeze” flavor at Taco Bell, Code Red, Live Wire, and Black. All sucked! There is only one Mountain Dew!
I have another 70 bars of Coast Original Blue!
I too love the orig. coast soap. I like your of getting a lifetime supply. Where can I buy some? I’m going to write the pres. of the company tonight and complain about the fact that I can no longer find it.
I did find 6 bars in a Walgreen’s a few weeks ago. It looked older, but I was glad to get it.
Coast original blue just disappeared!! It had been my favorite soap and as you know, its gone..the last ones I found were about 9 months ago at a dollar store. needless to say I bought a few packages but they are now gone. Yes, I have showered since then..I look for miracles though and hope dial realizes the winner they had and one day when I walk down the soap aisle, with my eyes peaking through my hands covering my face, in hope of being coastfully clean, I will see it again. I also have a thing for Lorna Doones. They are awesome cookies..
Hi! I totally understand your Coast original obsession. I LOVE the original myself. I called the Dial company today and the person on the telephone told me the only difference between the new version and the old version was the packaging. NONSENSE! Any ideas on why they would say that when the new formula is not even close to the old? I bought a couple of cases on ebay but am looking to purchase more. Any ideas? We should start a grass roots campaign to have the original brought back! Thanks for your post!
Original Coast Blue available by the case on eBay. Just search for: Original Coast Blue

OMG! I have been going crazy trying to get the BLUE. I wrote Dial 4 times and they ignored me. Finally they responded and told me that the Original Blue holds a new name and it is the same. My response. ITS NOT THE SAME, Not even close! It F’n Sucks! I dont think i will hear back from them. I have used that coast since i was a rug rat! so sad to see it go.
