Hi - I am trying to increase my collection of cacti/succulents. I recently stumbled across this plant recently being sold very cheap at a local stall - so not sure what it is.
I've tried to find out what it is by using a few books, but not really sure. The leaves look really thick and the flower stalk is a nice addition.

Here is a photo:

Any ideas?

Possibly a Gasteria maculata with spray on leaf "shine" or a G. prolifera. I'll keep an eye out.
