Dollar Tree carries Yardley and Pears for $1/cake. I have also seen Pears at Walgreens recently. Most stores around here carry Ivory. A few years ago, Costco even had it in early 1900s commemorative packaging! Around here (Texas) I've been able to find Lux, Camay, Palmolive, and Cashmere Bouquet in some of the smaller grocery stores.

I have a lot of 1941-45 women's magazines, and this is a pretty popular theme:

I've got a box at home crammed full of original 1940s wrapped bars of Lifebuoy, Lux, Sweetheart, Cashmere Bouquet, Ivory, Camay, and a couple others I can't remember. I haven't tried using any of them yet. lol
