Very Small PIF
So I have some stuff that I got but never used that a newb could totally use.
Brand new in box VDH brush
BNIB Williams soap
BNIB clubman jumbo styptic
I know its not much, but honestly, its like ~$15-$20 that you'd be getting free. I know its not great stuff but its all brand brand new in their boxes and stuff. The VDH brush I bought because my old one was giving in (but got a badger one for my b-day so I never used the VDH). The Williams soap I bought to try something other than VDH, but received some Gold-Dachse Rivivage soap for my b-day, then a free tube of Proraso, then some soap samples, now I am buying one of said soap samples- longs story short, never even opened the Williams soap. The styptic pencil I thought I would go through, so I bought 3, turns out they last forever, so i don't need this one.
REQ's-
Have to have joined in the last month Aug/Sept, gimme a sentence why you should win, winner will be chosen Sept 9. College student/military/budget a plus, but really any reason will work- in one of the other PIF's I was really attracted to the idea of a woman getting it to surprise her boyfriend, something I did not expect. So really, just throw your entry in the hat. Its not a big give away, and none of my family or friends care so unfortunately I will have to judge myself. Sorry....Last edited by khaos; 09-04-2009 at 05:17 PM.

That is very nice of you to help out the newer members. The generosity of members on this forum never ceases to amaze me. I am sure you will make a newbie's day!

Well, I'm a newb and I'm definitely trying to do this on the cheap as I made my strop and honed up two antiques I got on ebay.

Finally a response! Why wouldn't people want free stuff?

Thanked: 21Newb here who hasn't gotten anything but a CVS soap/brush. It's funny but I haven't been able to make a good lather of any sort, my daughter however can and does for me. I could seriously use some different kit and if you're not using it would truly appreciate it.

Thanked: 137Good on you for doing this, I have been on the receiving end of two PIFs since I started (one as a n00b for a razor, one very recently for a hone), and the generosity of members here never fails to surprise. Every little bit counts.
Can I suggest, however, that if the responses are still very low you extend the giveaway until you get an acceptable number of responses? It means that the person who gets it is one who gets the most benefit, rather than the only person to reply to the thread.

Originally it was open until Sept 15 but I was asked to shorten it. I will check to see if I am allowed to lengthen it again.
