Thread: Where do your unwanted soaps go?

I've recently acquired a couple more soap cakes here lately - and I've gotta tell ya - I'm not at all impressed by one of them in particular! I'd like to give it a few more tries to confirm or deny that this soap is not for my face, but this got me to thinking with what I'd do about this not-so-used cake of soap...

If you guys get a soap you're not pleased with do you just throw it away? Use it up in the shower? Trade with other members? Take up shelf space until you find something else?

Curious to see what you guys think...

Soaps I don't like because of scent, but performs well I usually give away to a beginner to help start SAD or trade it for something else.

The few I've tried that have been pure crap have found the way to the garbage.

I like the "give away to a beginner" line. i would never turn down a new soap. Im already getting a little case of SAD. Being new id really like to try a wide range of soaps to find some i really enjoy.

With that being said, if you truly want to get rid of it, PM me, id have no problem working out a deal to save a perfectly good puck of soap.

If I don't get along with anything I don't like it goes straight onto the Buy/Sell/Trade forum or worst case eBay. That's the great thing about SRP; there's always someone out there wanting to try out or discover something new.

With soaps, I give them a good rinse and make sure they are hygienically clean, before leaving them to dry out for a few days by leaving them open.

I'll toss the worst ones, and grate the ok ones in to a big mug with all other products not suited for standalone use.
It actually works pretty well

I save them up for the Meets and give them away if they work as shave soaps if they really Bite then I use them in the shower

I have really cut back on buying soaps though, I have picked out the Commercial brands I like now, and the "Artisan" ones I have found very few that I like enough to buy another puck...

The dog eats them. Really, no kidding.
