How Low Can You Go...?
I want to play a game.
I'm a horrible minimalist. Name a shave related Acquisition Disorder and I'm afflicted. So as I sat reading posts from others who have more success in controlling their urges, I wondered, just how cheap of a great shave could I get with gear from my rotation? Here's what I came up with:
Razor: Case Red Imp 132 I paid $4 for. Basketcase. Needed a lot of TLC to get it into shape, but she's a fine razor now. I had to re-scale it, and did so with a piece of red acrylic which was $5. So $9 for the razor.
Brush: Omega 10049 $7.99
Soap: Willams puck (from the Dollar Store) $1.00
Aftershave: Thayers Aftershave with witch hazel and aloe $6.25
TOTAL COST OF SHAVE: $24.24 (NOTE: I didn't include tax or shipping on any of this, so you don't have to either.)
So, how the game is played: You must use a razor, a brush, a soap/cream, and an aftershave care product. If your razor was a gift, that's fair game. If cold water is your aftershave, that's fair game because you deserve it you masochist. But the items MUST be in regular use in your rotation.
So how low can you go? GAME ON!!! Enjoy the exquisite taste sharpening sharpening taste exquisite smooth. Please taste the taste enough to ride cutlery.
