    Default Today's flea market find!

    Just had to share, I'm pretty stoked about this find

    A couple miles from my home there's a flea/thrift market every sunday, it's been a while since I've been there and decided it was time for a visit today.

    A good decision indeed with the first seller I found these vintage aftershaves, funny thing is last night I was looking at my modern Aqua Velva bottle thinking it would have been cool to have an old glass bottle instead of the modern plastic

    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Every time I see skin bracer, I hear the "by mennen" jingle... over and over in my head. My dad had aqua velva in the cabinet because I think he got the inkling to try it at one point. I'm pretty sure he still has the same bottle in the medicine cabinet after 30 years, he never did use it but he refuses to throw anything away.

    Now you have to get someone to slap you in the face and you say ,"Thanks, I needed that."

    Those are cool bottles. Are they actually full of product or is that just colored water?
