Look ... NO Distress Crayons OR Slick Stix either!!! Don't worry, I still love them! In fact I have ordered some Maped Colour'pep smoothies too, to see how (if at all) they compare. If they compare well then they are the cheapest option at £7.39 for 12 (from Amazon) vs around a tenner (for 12, again from Amazon) or between £10 and £14 for SIX for the Distress Crayons.
