An example of a recent order. My son borrowed my comb. Now, I really like my comb. It's a Kent comb, made from quality plastic (don't laugh!) with the teeth cut, not moulded, so the teeth don't bend or break, but they aren't sharp or scratchy either. And he found he liked it a lot too.

Solution: Give him that one, get out my spare (kept in my suitcase) for me to use and order another from Amazon. £4.49, and I get £1 of that back as a digital credit, so net cost £3.49. Ordered late on a Monday, delivered to my door on the Friday, and now in my suitcase as a spare (or for when I'm travelling).

It took five minutes, not half an hour traipsing around the shops, and was cheaper (with the free shipping and £1 credit) than I could have bought it anywhere.

What's not to like?

I was really dubious of the benefits of Prime membership the first year, but my membership is coming up for renewal in September, and I wouldn't consider dropping it now.
