I've been out all day, so I wasn't here when the box arrived. My wife brought it in with our 2-wheel baggage truck, then took two ibuprofen for her back.

All I've had time to do so far is slice through the tape to open it. The board on top immediately rose by an inch. I may have to stand on the box to reseal it!

My wife can sympathize. She said someone must have sent me a box of bricks. And yes, it took a bit of rearranging and then just brute force to get everything to fit and the lid to "close". I can't wait to see what you find interesting.

I know i'm not on the tour but...

Point of order.
I see someone is trying to poison an unsuspecting tour participant with the "shivers" Lilac Vegetal...
For shame.
I will be praying for the poor soul who takes it.


Great box. Have fun guys.

Yea that Stuff Stayed in the Box. !

If I had known there would be some Veg, I would have signed up

When it comes to the Veg… not many are worthy

I’m not Worthy - I’m not Worthy ! !

But maybe it would have been picked off before it would get to you....we just never know.

you probably still can.

Since I'm not much into splashes, I clearly am not worthy either. It will go on to the next victim.

I joked about the baggage truck (Box was a little under 20lbs.), but not about how packed the box was. Resealing it was a 2-person job.
So, @poppi , make sure you stand back a ways when you slice through the tape!

Anyways, here are photos of my takes:
A few soaps, brushes, and blades I didn't have.


And gives:
Some splashes that I don't use, an assortment of brushes I keep reaching past, Some blades I have a surplus of, and some seasonal and vintage soaps.

So much for taking more than you put in! You're going to have to bend the laws of physics to get the lid back on that box.

The Veg and Tabac in the same box we may be reaching critical mass.

Actually, 5 brushes, 3 soaps, 1 ASB, 1 razor, 25 blades in - the same out. Offsetting the Tabac & samples, I took a razor case, an A&E sample, & brush stand. Pretty much a wash, although I admit the Tabac bottle was a bit bulkier than the brush stand.

I even put the Veg and the Tabac on opposite sides of the box so they couldn't mate and create very strange offspring.

Since I did get the lid back on the box, It's now @poppi 's turn to try transcendental dimensioning.

The very thought of such a thing sends a shiver down my spine...

Yes, an abomination.

Merry Christmas to me! I got the box today. Probably won't do anything with it till next week cuz of the holidays.

But, MERRY CHRISTMAS to all
