Thread: I want free soap and cream.

Not really, but I would like to let Nancy smell them.

Kind of a pay-it-forward thing.

Y'all may have done this already......

What do you think of the idea of starting a list here of soaps and creams you don't want or have a small portion of that you could send me at no cost.

Three or four weeks would get it all here and I would then let Nancy (and me) smell them and then send the whole kit and kaboodle to the next shaver to do the same. It would move much faster after that I would guess. Give 'em all a sniff, send them on, and order what I like for a shave test.

I'd list the pay-it-forward on a separate thread and fit it all in a Priority Mail Flat Rate Box. $11 to see a bunch of different soaps and creams.

Well, what do you think? Crazy, good idea.......

I would say that I would have liked this back in January when I first started. However, I've spent so much money on soaps and creams that I feel like all noobs should have to do the same... Instead of paying it forward, it's kinda like paying your dues

Wow. There's a prime example of a just and upright man. [/sarcasm]

Word!



Nice idea from the OP though. Hope it comes to fruition for you.

I only live about an hour from Asheville. If you wanted to meet somewhere for like lunch or something I could bring a lot of soaps/creams for you to sniff.

Of course I would be inside having lunch while you did it. You can explain to the cops what you are doing.

Just a thought,
Ken.

I'm so bummed I started using a straight razor after razorcon!!!

I think that's a great idea!

I still think putting a package together for newbies would be a cheap and easy contribution to the community.

All in all, a great idea Doc!

Let's do this.

Wouldn't it just be better to taunt each other with each others soaps, so that you all buy all of them? That's how we do it up here in the Boston suburbs.
